Have you tried the version in updates or updates-testing? 0.3.10-2.fc9 is what dwells in testing. This is still the case with gnome-packagekit-0.3.12-1.fc10.x86_64. Does unchecking "Filters->Only newest packages" fix things? Yes, it does. Shouldn't the said filter apply to packages in repos (not installed) only? Hiding installed packages from the user is not nice. This bug has been triaged -- Fedora Bugzappers volunteer triage team https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers commit 8883089d5f33bfd91491d1e60e87eb7534e703b3 Author: Richard Hughes <richard> Date: Wed Apr 15 17:57:32 2009 +0100 yum: consider the installed state when we do newest filtering. Fixes rh#472876 Actually, this produced a bug where there was none. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=476827 Now when you have some package installed in latest version, the non-installed earlier versions are shown as well even if "latest packages only" filter is used. This is quite annoying. Please revert the filter to how it worked before for the sake of consistency in user experience, i.e. filter working according to its name and stated purpose regardless of whether package is installed or not (there is a separate filter for that). It's self-explanatory that if one wants to view the earlier versions of a package then (s)he has to uncheck the "latest packages only". And if one wants to view earlier versions of an installed package (like the kernel) then (s)he should uncheck "latest packages only" and check "only installed". The filter _wasn't broken at all_ in the first place and now there is an unnecessary exception for the installed packages and if earlier non-installed packages are to be hidden by fixing bug 476827, then there will be an exception to an exception - this is confusing and inconsistent user experience. with gnome-packagekit-2.27.3-1.fc11.x86_64 a regression was introduced. It seems that the newest filter considers x86_64 packages newer than i586, and thus only the former are displayed in case: - both packages are installed - both packages are not installed In case one arch is installed and the other is not, both architectures are shown in the list. commit 52dccfbfa6218cc82c47d682761f36f745e3d0ca Author: Richard Hughes <hughsie@hughsie-dell.(none)> Date: Thu Jul 23 17:15:33 2009 +0100 Package arch should be taken into account for newest filtering.
