I've found that my WSUS server has been reporting recent builds of Windows Server 2012 R2 as needing four superseded updates: KB3016074, KB3058168, KB3071663, KB3139162. These are all superseded by KB3172614, but this is never "applicable" for installation.
I downloaded KB3172614 from Microsoft Update Catalog and it is also "not applicable".
Typically, after first building Server 2012 R2 I manually install KB2929442 and KB2919355, and then the updates that come with it.
That being completed, the system will connect to WSUS and get all of the (140) other updates approved for Server 2012 so far.
I see that the page for KB3172614 wants you to install a servicing stack update, KB 3021910, Some of the other threads about this update also recommend 3921910. However, one of the updates installed via WSUS is KB3713424 which supersedes it. All of my server 2012 systems have the latter update, and KB3021910 is also listed as "not applicable" for all of them.
So as far as I can tell, the systems that need KB3172614 already have all of the prerequisites for it.
The older builds installed KB3172614 with no problem. I suspect that one of the companion updates to KB2919355, or KB2929442, should be dropped from the manual install sequence or replaced with a newer one. But I can't tell which one.
