Thank you. Yes, it showed the 3.7.9 kernel there.
I had previously searched for “kernel” in Yast software manager, and it showed 3.7.10. However, after seeing that “rpm” output, I clicked the “versions” button in software manager, and it showed both 3.7.9 and 3.7.10.
I deleted 3.7.9 from there (from the version list).
The output while it was running said things like “kernel-desktop removed”. But a check afterwards showed that only the 3.7.9 version had been removed.
