Hmmm ...seems to do anything with the /usr/local/petget/categories.dat.

Found a entry there with the name of the App i have made a pet and i want to install.
PKGCAT_Fun_Sub=" angrydd barrage bastet billard-gl blockout2 ......
If i delete the entry of the app-name there the installation will run without trouble.

Renamed know my Package while compressing to a pet to another name. Now the installation went well.

Why there will renamed Games to X-Fun_sub?? Is the categories.dat buggy? It seems so. Maybe anybody can fix it.

I had the same problem with milkytracker and qnapi. They was changed to X-Multimedia-Sub (so without the menu entry). Of course in the file "categories.dat" they are in X-Multimedia-Sub. So I also think that there is a problem with "categories.dat".
