Well I managed to get things mostly sane.....There was a bunch of Yast
maintenance that didn't go in. I applied it and got it down to the package -
yast2-http-server being not updated
mudlake:~ # SPident -vv

I reloaded all the packages from the server. I went through the YOU package
list (I wish that the YOU panel had a serch function like the
install/remove software panel does) 4 times. front to back, back to front. I
could not find yast2-http-server 2.9.31-0.5. Could not find it at all.
Just to see what SPident would do, I un-installed this package through
install/remove software.

And now SPident is happy. I am not, however. What functionality did I lose
here, and how, if anyone has an idea, do I put this back and get it so that
YOU pulls the update for it?

Only SPident is going to be able to tell you why it thinks you're not
up to date.
