For now, the backend doesn't support update a single package or a list of packages, only the hole list provided by host's package manager. So, IMO, the UI should only list the package information and enable the button to update the system. If it's interesting add the selection of packages to be updated, we can do this later as an enhancement of this feature. If we just need update all packages, why should we list each package version? Normal flow is see which version a package is, then notice it does not support a functionality and update it. Also I assume we need to update 'kimchi' from web, then update single

However, IMO this feature is not necessary. If you cant update the hole software stack of your host system, do not use the package/software update feature. If the distro is providing an update, that is because the update is necessary to the system - generally security fixes. As a good system administrator, you must keep your system updated as possible.
