[BUG] categories, tags and trackers not working

[vdgsx]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Current Behavior

categories, tags and trackers sections dont have their "all" and "uncategorized" options, which also doesnt allow adding any new ones.
using latest version (5.1.4-r3-ls451), although it seems to be an issue of many versions prior to this one as ive had to go back to v5.0.0-r0-ls354 to see them working. honestly i didnt check them all, i just wanted to make sure that there was a version that had them working.
i apologize if theres something missing, im new to this kind of stuff.

I'm having a similar issue where the "All" tags show up, but the list is still always empty no matter what I inspect even though I can inspect element and find entries related to the torrents I added. Reverting to the 5.0.0 version also fixed my issue.
