Not really, no. The change was made to speed the output up and simplify
it. you might notice yum search is much much faster in 3.2.8 than 3.0.x.
However, we might be able to work out something.
I understand the rationale for simplifying the resultlist, but it would
be awesome if one could ask for an alternate presentation (slower
performing obviously).
Having the package version and source repository listed is very helpful
in a lot of situations.
In the above, case, however, you can do: yum list redhat-lsb
and get the results you want.
Yes, as I said I know I can use "list" in many situations (whenever the
package name is known), but it does not provide the same level of recall
as "search" would.
A typical example would be searching for apache :
yum list '*apache*'
will not return the actual httpd package, as it does not have apache in
the title..
Thanks for clarifying anyway.
