First of all are you using aptcc backend?
If so please keep in mind that we don't do magic,
the gui filter only filters by the package section.
Not showing a browser simply means that the package name
and details didn't had the browser keyword.

>Hi.

>I was looking forward twards a simple graphical package manager for the very end user (Mac/Win migrants), since Ubuntu's software center isn't available, I decided to use package kit.

>It appears that the Debian frontend of packagekit isn't at the right state, the search results were very wrong using the GTK frontend. I used pkcon to get some sample output -
