Additional Information
Steps to duplicate:
1) From a ZCM 10.1 system, create a custom agent deployment package that is "standalone".
2) Go to http://<server>/zenworks-setup and the package can be seen. It will be over 80Meg in size and labeled "standalone"
3) Apply System Update 10.1.1.
4) After update is baselined and all deployment packages are automatically updated, go to http://<server>/zenworks-setup and the package is now around 500K. It is mislabled as a "standalone", but it is really been transformed into a "network" install.
