--- Comment #3 from Buovjaga <ilmari.lauhakangas at libreoffice.org> ---
(In reply to sergio.callegari from comment #2)
> In my case the entries being shown are neither ignored nor disabled updates.
> The packages that get listed had already been updated to their newest
> release and nowhere in the development sites of these packages other
> releases (that could have been disabled or set to be ignored) are mentioned.
> 
> Hence, at best these may be entries related to spurious updates to LibO
> extension database, i.e. the database used by LibO to deliver its extension
> update notices.
> 
> If this is the case, the thing seems to be related to a highly internal
> technical detail, and I do not see why it gets exposed to the average user.
> If this information is useful to extension developers, I suggest providing a
> macro for them to call.
> 
> Thus, unless it has some more interesting purpose, I suggest that the
> tickbox could be removed. Unless I am missing something, it is just an
> unnecessary and confusing item in the UI.
