Screenshot visualizing the problem

User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.6)
Gecko/2009012700 SUSE/3.0.6-0.1.2 Firefox/3.0.6

My KDE updater applet is set to the following settings:

"Show available upgrades when backend provides them" is activated. The backend
is set to "ZYpp plugin", because the PackageKit plugin doesn't support the
"show available upgrades when backend provides them" option.

I noticed for numerous times that the updater applet still doesn't catch all
upgrades provided by the backend (of course I clicked on "Check Now" and made
"zypper refresh" to be sure the updater applet has up-to-date package
information).

More precisely: If I choose "All Packages" -> "Update if newer version is
available" in the YaST software manager more packages will be upgraded than by
the updater applet.

For instance at the moment I have the situation that the updater applets wants
to upgrade 11 packages, but the YaST software manager wants to upgrade 12
packages. Specifically: The updater applet doesn't want to upgrade lucview.

I'll attach a screenshot to demonstrate the problem. Also I will not perform
any of the updates, so in case somebody has a patch, I can test if it solves
the issue.

In the past I also had the case that the updater applet missed far more (like
YaST says 20 upgrades, updater applet doesn't see a single update) than just
one package as it does now.

Reproducible: Always
