The package's variants

A package may have multiple versions, and each version can have different builds and builds for various operating systems. The Package Variant table provides a helpful overview.

Clicking on an entry in the table expands the list of dependencies for that package variant.

Hover over the listed dependencies to obtain more information on the items. If there are repodata patches, they will also be displayed in the Package Variant table.

Common patches found in the table:

• Yanked: The package is removed from the repodata, but the download link remains accessible. The package can only be used by linking to it directly.
• Removed dependencies: Visualized as red pills in the dependency list. These dependencies are removed from the repodata after the package was built.
• Added dependencies: Visualized as green pills in the dependency list. These dependencies are added to the repodata after the package was built.
