Thanks for the reports.
1) For the logs: You look in the wrong place. As we use zypper to install the
updates when clicking "Install", you have to look in the zypper logs:
/var/log/zypper.log
2) What gets installed: this was one of the design goals. Keep confusing
information to a minimum. (Un)fortunately showing a huge list of what gets
updated is one of the major complaints by new users in all distributions. This
should be addressed.
However, I can agree, for those who want a minimum of information we should add
some kind of display what patch/package is worked on. I'd like to keep an
enhancement bug around for post 10.3
3) Red update coming twice: this was apparently an update of the update stack.
In this case only these updates are shown and installed and after the restart
of the applet the rest is shown. I can agree, that this might be confusing but
we agreed to remain silent in this case.
4) Details brings up Package Manager: Solved. Now it starts Online Update.
Caveat: just handles patches no packages.
5) Your comment #3 and comment #4: I can't really tell why, but I assume that
it didn't recheck for updates as it should after performing an update thus it
stays red. Thus it turned green after the next check. What have you done
exactly?
