Let me guess, the updates you had have the same version as those already installed.
The issue is, someone borked the repos. Some packages in devel, testing and final aren't the same, that is, the binaries differ, but not the version. As a result, apt-get offers to "upgrade" them both ways.
Because the version is the same, it doesn't know that one version superseded the other, so when enabling -devel it offers to upgrade from devel, when enabling -testing but not devel it offers that version instead.
The reason why your updates jump up and down is because you enable and disable repos. Right now, if you disable -devel, you get upgrade to say 0.0.3. If you do so and then enable -devel, another update will appear, to 0.0.3.
To maintain sanity, all managers must share the same repos. I had quite a dig at that.
You're welcome. :P

Currently I have the problem that not all applications from extras(-devel/-testing) repositories have a date (option in settings to fetch it is activated) and when I sort the list to date they are shown at the bottom even if they are new.
Is that a problem from the repositories or FAP?

fapman randomly wants to update catalogs when I tap remove apps -icon. I think it's not necessary to download catalog data when you're about to remove an existing program...

Version 0.6
* use custom repository and package list directories
* "fast remove": don't read full package lists immediately when package view is opened with the remove button
* search options: search from package display name, package name, package description (short and long)
* ability to blacklist installed packages
* show maemo-upgrade-description for upgradeable packages if it exists
* show dependencies and conflicts in the package selector
* option to play a sound on completed operations
* use hildon notes instead of dialogs to inform user about finished operations
* load the default wallpaper from /user/home/.backgrounds/background-1.png
* fade the wallpaper if loaded from the default location but not when loaded from /root/.fapman/wallpaper.png
- Faster application manager now instructs apt-get to use a completely separate repository list and package list cache
directories (it's at /opt/fapman-cache). This should minimize the conflicts with HAM. Running "update" from HAM should ensure it restores its own settings completely.
- Note that blacklisting packages hides them from the UI only. They can still get installed as dependencies for other packages.
I hope I didn't break anything with the changes

Also, make sure to change the settings *before* you type in your search (it's also possible to set them as default in options menu), there seems to be a bug which prevents all of the results from showing if you change the options after typing :P

Have you compared the lists with the latest version of fapman?
If you have installed a package manually, HAM can possibly show an available update for it even though the version numbers are the same (in which case fapman won't show it). If it bothers you, just update it in HAM and stop worrying
Also HAM seems to list some updates outside of user/* categories too, are they visible in fapman if you list "all packages (advanced)"?If there is a real problem (a package is not shown as upgradeable even if one with an actually higher version number is available), then I'd like some more information... Like output of "dpkg --status packagename" for the offending packages and also the exact version numbers HAM lists in the details dialog.
