Description

```
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> cup all
Chocolatey v0.9.9.4
Upgrading the following packages:
all
By upgrading you accept licenses for the packages.
ccleaner v5.04.5151 is the latest version available based on your source(s).
vlc v2.2.0 is the latest version available based on your source(s).
[...]
```

It really should list the actual packages there instead of saying it's upgrading the package called `all`.

Research direction

Start by tracing the `cup all` command entry point and the code that produces the “Upgrading the following packages” output. Compare the displayed `all` value with the packages processed afterward; done means the summary lists the actual packages selected for update, with tests updated or added if the relevant test location is found.
