I sent a parcel by Air Sure which doesn't require a signature, but will be scanned when it arrives. The update that shows on posten.se says: 12 okt kl 09:16 Brevbärarkontor Alsnögatan, Försändelsen har ej kunnat delas ut. Försändelsen aviserad. But if I look in the details, there's one later than that, at 10.32 that says: Brevbärarkontor Alsnögatan, Posten har ej nått mottagaren för utdelning före 09.00. Nytt utdelningsförsök görs senast kl 15.00. Därefter hanteras försändelsen som vanligt brev. I don't understand why the update at 09:32 is showing as the main update, but the one at 10am only shows in the information? There's been no update since yesterday. Is post held somewhere for people to collect or returned to sender? How long do the 'post office' hold on to the parcel?

It sounds like the postal delivery person tried to deliver the package (possibly twice) and there was no one there to receive it. It says a new attempt will be made at the latest 15.00, after that it will be treated as regular post. Most people have a slot in the door for mail. If the parcel is too large to fit through that, it will be sent to a local shop with mail capabilities for pick-up and a card will be left in the mail slot saying where to pick it up. I'm not sure how long they hold it, but it's awhile. I've received packages while on holiday, and they were waiting for me when I returned.
