Didn't do anything, but I'm glad it resolved itself. Maybe mirror was out 
of sync.

I've seen similar complaints about the GUI tools giving different results 
than urpmi on the #mandriva irc channel. The common advice there is to use 
the CLI (from the channel ops, not Mandriva staff).

A search for rpmdrake or mandrakeupdate on qa.mandriva.com didn't show me 
any bugs that describe this particular scenario. One would think someone 
would have posted a bug about it if it's a common problem.

If you can post a bug, with some specifics about the state of the system 
and the difference in proposed updates between GUI and CLI, perhaps the 
maintainer will look at it.
