Hello,

on my Leap 15.3 in yast / yast2 after opening "Software Management" I
immediatelly see the results of the tab "Package Classification" / "Retraced
Installed Packages", showing the actual kernel 5.3.18-150300.59.93.1 and no
newer kernel availabe (s. screenshot). 

Yes, there is a retraced kernel installed on the machine, but it is a complete
other version (see 5.3.18-150300.59.81 at the bottom of the screenshot).

So what does this window try to tell me? That there is any kernel version
installed which is retraced, or, that the actuaal kernel 5.3.18-150300.59.93.1
is retraced what obvoiusly is not true, see:

https://www.suse.com/support/kb/doc/?id=000019587

If there is a window showing a list of "Retraced Installed Packages" I would
expect that only the retraced versions are shown and not the actual one.

How can I fix this if it is a bug - or understand it if it is a feature?


Best 

Klaus
