Issue Minor bug with system package update manager

System package update manager claims that some packages are outdated and displays the wrong version of the currently installed package.

We had updated the system with the latest packages from vendor repository yesterday from 7.2 to 7.3. The server was rebooted afterwards, system package manager has displayed "All packages are up-to-date" and still does so now. Auto-update system packages is set to "off" in the Plesk GUI. Notifications are set to "on".

During the nightly maintenance window, system update packager is reporting a long list of packages to update. However, these packages have already been updated yesterday and are active in their latest versions. Excerpt from the list:

"- GeoIP 1.5.0-11.el7 vom Repository base (derzeit installierte Version: 1.5.0-9.el7 vom Repository base)
- audit 2.6.5-3.el7 vom Repository base (derzeit installierte Version: 2.4.1-5.el7 vom Repository unbekannt)
- audit-libs 2.6.5-3.el7 vom Repository base (derzeit installierte Version: 2.4.1-5.el7 vom Repository unbekannt)
- audit-libs-python 2.6.5-3.el7 vom Repository base (derzeit installierte Version: 2.4.1-5.el7 vom Repository base)
- avahi-libs 0.6.31-17.el7 vom Repository base (derzeit installierte Version: 0.6.31-15.el7_2.1 vom Repository updates)
..."

Testing what package is actually installed, e.g. for audit-libs:
# rpm -qa audit-libs
audit-libs-2.6.5-3.el7.x86_64
Same result for all other entries of the list.

Expected: System package update manager should not mail a list of packages to be updated that have long been updated before.
