Are you sure about that ?

I would have expected that "-u" is missing some entries compare to "-t", not
the opposite...

Yes, _SYSTEMD_UNIT is missing due to the race you pointed out below.

But this field is supposed to influence "-u", not "-t" like you suggested
above.

And IIUC, it's supposed to be fixed by 22e3a02b9d618bbebcf987bc1411acda367271ec
commit which is part of v235 and later.

I dont think it would be safe to change that for Leap 42.[23] and since the
issue is quite minor as the few missing entries are not lost but not displayed
if "-u" is used, I think we can wait until v236 is merged in Factory and leave
42.3 with this minor issue.

So I'll close this one as "UPSTREAM" unless you don't agree with the above.

Thanks.
