the pro feature to select which apps to allow for an app to see. (fine grained installed apps settings..) do not seem to work.

I blocked installed apps (as well as the dangerous functions inside) for my launcher and only allowed those I want it to show, but this is not working at all.

The installed applications are tracked through "getIntentActivities" (which is a "dangerous setting") but this thing does not seem to listen to which apps / which intents I allowed.

So its either all apps or none at all that my launcher shows, depending on whether I allowed or blocked the "getIntentActivities".

The only "normal" setting in this category "ApplicationsProvider" does seem to do nothing actually. I mean even if I "normally" block (without the dangerous settings) the launcher from seeing other apps. (so just applicationsprovider is ticked) this has no consequence at all. This means that for users that do not use expert mode, the "installed apps" category is kind of useless.

Please change it so that xprivacy also reports back the correct info for the dangerous settings (especially getIntentActivities) of those apps that are allowed in the pro settings.
