S | Name | Type | Version | Arch | Repository --+----------------------+------------+-------------+--------+------------ i | kernel-desktop | package | 3.11.10-7.1 | i686 | suse-update i | kernel-desktop | package | 3.11.6-4.1 | i686 | suse-oss | kernel-desktop | srcpackage | 3.11.10-7.1 | noarch | suse-update | kernel-desktop-base | package | 3.11.10-7.1 | i686 | suse-update | kernel-desktop-base | package | 3.11.6-4.1 | i686 | suse-oss | kernel-desktop-devel | package | 3.11.10-7.1 | i686 | suse-update | kernel-desktop-devel | package | 3.11.6-4.1 | i686 | suse-oss
