If you would rather do it ahead of time, and not after the fact, then for SLES10: rug list-updates -t patch | sed -e 1,4d | while read channel pipe1 patch reset do echo $patch rug patch-info $patch done The output could be further processed to get rid of lines you don't want. For SLES11, you would use zypper instead of rug, but the parameters would be the same.
