Generally agreed, though at the same time, sysupgrade returns non-zero if there is no upgrade to apply so the same behaviour /could/ be valid here.

That sounds like a better approach in this case. I'll double check the behaviour of syspatch -c, and perhaps look into making a patch that updates the usage output of syspatch. Anyway, best to disregard the original diff now I think. Thanks, S
