Rotate the log file yourself once a year. You can check if you are
seeing this bug by looking at the /var/log/yum.log last modified time.
If it was yesterday, then I suppose the packages were installed.
As far as your other questions, how does it determine what packages to
update, I think you will find it's not actually doing any updating. I
have not used yum-updatesd to auto-update packages myself, but I would
think it would automatically install any updated package.
