Also it seems that 6 should _not_ be in the sequence:
pari/gp
N=72 \\ up to this value
vv=vector(N);
{ for(n=2, N,
if ( isprime(n), next() );
d=divisors(n);
d=vector(#d-2,j,d[j+1]); \\ not n, not 1
\\ print(n, ":: ", d);
for (k=1, (1<<#d)-1, \\ all subsets
t=vecextract(d, k);
if ( n==sum(j=1,#t,t[j]),
vv[n] += 1;
\\ print(n, ": ", t); \\ print subset that works
\\ break(); \\ speedup, just find one sum
);
);
); }
for (j=1, #vv, if (vv[j]>0, print1(j,", "))) \\ A005835 (after correction)
\\ this prints:
12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 40, 42, 48, 54, 56, 60, 66, 72,
