I suspect it may have something to do with whether or not optional, document, etc., patches are eligible for automatic selection or not.

On some of our vservers when running Yast Online Update (YOU) pointing to our local YOU server, some candidate patches (e.g patch-10747) are missing in the list of installable patches. I know for a fact that the YOU server has the patch available. It is inconsistent; some of our similar vservers do have it listed when doing YOU. The net effect of this is SPident is now reporting "NOT uptodate". Maybe related to this problem is: in the "online_update" help, something is mentioned about patch "default selection algorithm". What exactly is this? Thanks for any help.
