Actually I would agree with Mauricio.
But that's another issue. Smart is correctly displaying the various available versions, that is
correct. But it's totally useless if it doesn't display the version+release number as well.

Mauricio, how about closing this issue and creating another, to request "search" to also display the
version+release number ?

Maybe the behaviour should be like this:
- - no flags: don't display version number but then, uniq'ify the output (only show e.g. "amarok" once)
- - search -v: also display version+release information and hence, display all results (including e.g.
"amarok" several times)
- - search -c: also display the channel where the package is available from
(-v and -c may be combined)

What do you think ?
(don't know if it's feasible as of now though, depends on what data smart has in its search
operation but I assume it should be there)

cheers
