I was looking for accessability options, but nothing yet.
You can use Tom's workaround, or/and one of this:
1) Both blue and red lines look the same in black and white, it is slightly
lighter gray that black text, but if you scroll right to see versions you can
see numbers of installed and available versions.
With blue text *available* version has light gray background.
With red text *installed* version has black text on red background that as
gray looks as dark gray, but text is readable.
2) Tooltips - hover with mouse over text and it will tooltip will pop up. They
list file name and versions.
3) To have versions visible without scrolling you can squeeze width of
columns:
Package | Summary | Size | Avail. Ver. | Inst. Ver.
Go to separator between column titles, and mouse pointer will change to double
arrow <--> , press mouse left button and pull separator to column width that
you like.
Don't forget zypper:
zypper lu
will list available patches ie. update repository only,
zypper lu -t package
will list available packages ie. any other repository that you have.
For instance:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
~> zypper lu --help
list-updates [options]
List all available updates
Command options:
-t, --type <type> Type of resolvable (package, patch, pattern, product)
(default: patch)
-r, --repo <alias> List only updates from the repository specified by the
alias.
--best-effort Do a 'best effort' approach to update, updates to a lower
than latest-and-greatest version are also acceptable.
