Going to the update wizard via the package manager, rather than directly (even as admin) seems to fix the problem.
I see that MiKTeX released a new major version yesterday. Therefore some package repositories were not yet synced.
@ Scott: The MiKTeX update will probably force me to release another installer for RC2. I'll have a look as soon as I find time.
