I have 3.2.8-2 from fc8
I modified my yum.conf to include this variable.

yum  --installroot /var/lib/mock/fedora-8-x86_64/root provides kernel-devel

returns nothing

yum -d2 --installroot /var/lib/mock/fedora-8-x86_64/root provides kernel-devel
has some debugging output, but does actually list 10 such packages, sans version info.

So I'd expect yum list to have these all (if i list all the packages which provide). Instead, I see only the most recent package from each repo.

Is there a way to get it to really show me all versions, including dups, in every repository?

(I keep an old kernels archive for this project)
