- SUSE:SLE-15-SP2:Update/nodejs12
- SUSE:SLE-12-SP4:Update/nodejs14
- SUSE:SLE-15-SP2:Update/nodejs14
- SUSE:SLE-12-SP5:Update/nodejs16
- SUSE:SLE-15-SP3:Update/nodejs16
- SUSE:SLE-15-SP4:Update/nodejs16
- SUSE:SLE-12-SP5:Update/nodejs18
- SUSE:SLE-15-SP4:Update/nodejs18
- SUSE:ALP:Source:Standard:1.0/nodejs18
