1) zypper up and dup are uncomparable, as they serve different purposes. But
both are package based operations. That's why both do not mention
java-1_6_0-sun, as the highest available version 1.6.0.u24 is already
installed.
2) zypper patch evaluates patches, not packages. The patch:java-1_6_0-sun makes
sure that if you have you have java-1_6_0-sun installed, it is at least version
1.6.0.u24. For this the patch conflicts with java-1_6_0-sun packages less than
1.6.0.u24. As 1.6.0.u24 is already installed, just the undesired older versions
are removed.
If 1.6.0.u24 was not installed, up and dup would have selected it.
The patch additionally requires the cleanup, thus touches the old java
packages.
And PK basically does zypper patch and zypper up in one go.
