Once upon a time (not sure how many versions back this goes), there were two version columns under Software Management, just as there are now, <snip>
Hi Greg, The two columns are 'Inst Ver' and 'Avail Ver'. If 'Inst Ver' is empty, the package is not installed. If the package is available for installation, it appears in the 'Avail Ver' column. 'Avail Ver' shows the latest version that is available **from the installation sources you've defined.** When 'Avail Ver' > 'Inst Ver' the text in that row turns blue. This means you *can* update it to the later version. When 'Avail Ver' = 'Inst Ver' the text in that row remains black. Nothing to do in this case. When 'Inst Ver' > 'Avail Ver' the text in that row turns red. hth & regards, Carl -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com
