I am a beginner to bash shell and I am trying to display the package info of all available packages in OpenSuse across all repos.

zypper info

needs a package as an argument. Could any command be suggested that can make this happen? Thanks!

This worked for me on openSUSE:

suse:~ # for i in `zypper se | grep -Ev "^S|---+" | awk -F "|" '{print $2}'`; do zypper info $i ; done

But note that this will take a really long time to finish because it literally displays the info for every available package (both installed and not installed).

bash is not involved in this command

sudo zypper info -s *

maybe it's more helpfull to run this for only a single package, as a list of all available packages from all repositories will be quite long.

listing all available package versions across all repositories:

sudo zypper search -s <package>
