software.opensuse.org search shows results for packages in DISCONTINUED repo's

It would be nice if software.o.o's search function didn't list unsupported distro's that no longer have binaries published. An example is the following which still lists the official openSUSE 11.1 package although it is not possible to download it

I think this is because OBS is returning results for it. @coolo ?

We get the list of distributions via /distributions.xml in @obs, I don't see a way to change that unless we maintain some kind of metadata on s.o.o itself, which I would prefer not to.

That seems to be an issue with OBS.

$ osc se --binary xpdf|grep 11.1
openSUSE:11.1                                        openSUSE:/11.1/standard/i586/xpdf-3.02-97.72.i586.rpm  openSUSE:11.1
openSUSE:/11.1/standard/src/xpdf-3.02-97.72.src.rpm  openSUSE:11.1                                          openSUSE:/11.1/standard/x86_64/xpdf-3.02-97.76.x86_64.rpm

openSUSE:11.1 doesn't exist anymore though, it's DISCONTINUED:openSUSE:11.1
