On the tumbleweed installation on this computer, all kernels were removed apart from kernel 4.11.8-1.2.
I have verified no other kernels are installed. However, command "uname -r" shows kernel as 4.11.8-1-default.
Grub is also reporting 4.11.8-1 as kernel version, not 8.2.
(assuming you meant "...not -1.2") OK, one more time... Last component of the release string ("2" in this case) is updated on spontaneous rebuilds in OBS, i.e. when some of the dependencies changes but not kernel sources themselves. Whenever kernel sources are updated, some of the earlier components is updated ("1" in this case). In other words, kernel packages 4.11.8-1.0, 4.11.8-1.2, 4.11.8-1.3 or 4.11.8-1.324810 would be all built from the same source and as kernel does not have many actual dependencies that would affect the resulting code (except, perhaps, gcc), it makes little sense to update kernel each time some package in its build environment is updated. Therefore kernel package strips the last component when determining its internal reported version. That is what "uname -r" shows, the name of the subdirectory under /lib/modules, suffix of /boot/vmlinuz-* etc. All packages above would use "4.11.8-1" as they are in fact the same.
