Description

Observation

The installation tests for S:M:21231:256470 didn't install any update even though there was one present in the repo.

The problem is that the test detects no patches to install. This should always be an error, whether there are patches to install or not. So the objective of this ticket is to at least make the test fail if it doesn't find any patches to install, and at best discover why it wouldn't detect any patches.

Acceptance Criteria

  • AC1: Find the underlying cause.
  • AC2: Fail the test from passing when there is no update to be installed.

Even if AC1 is not fullfilled, AC2 is still valid on its own, as there is no good reason for the test to run without updating anything.

This issue has reappeared as pointed out by #105124. I think that for the time being just making the test fail on an empty list of tests to be installed is enough.

The reason packages are not updated is that they are not installed on system and patch will be not applied if it has nothing to patch!
Status : not needed, I'm sure it will be the same on your VR when I first uninstall the updated packages. ;)
