Thanx.
It'll be nice to have the main package
name in the list too, like
base/which/which-1.5-1....


Thank you, Deepa

It does list the package name:

"which" is the package name. You can install this package using setup.exe.


What you're asking for is the *category* name, which might be useful but is definitely not necessary to install or uninstall the package. You can select and install a package without knowing which category it's in by switching to the "Full" view in setup.exe.
