i was thinking about the use of a database, re-builded every time the
cache update or upgrade, this because parse the contents of a
directory(/usr/share/app-install/desktop) is very slow, so we can build
the database parsing the directory only the first time, then parse the
database to get the packages faster. we can also add an option in the
edit menu, to re-build the database, called "Force packages list
upgrade" or something similar.

let me know what you think.
