Comment (by stippi):
Well, an empty list of "featured packages" is not ideal, sure. But it
probably means that either none of the currently "featured" packages are
available for your architecture, or you have already installed all of
them. The point of the "featured" packages list is to be some sort of
welcome screen which recommends packages to install. It will not recommend
packages which you have already installed, hence the featured packages
page only shows when you have not checked "Show installed packages". I see
only two solutions: Show a message "There are no featured packages, or you
have installed them all already." Or switch to the package list view when
there are no featured packages to recommend. Something else? What do you
think?
