[Pkgutil-users] Compare available packages to those installed

[<ma...@pr...>]

An uncontroversial patch, I hope, is attached.

This patch can be applied to pkgutil-2.1 (rev 286).

It adds the following:

* New option added, pkgutil -A (--compare-available), that is similar to pkgutil -c, except that it lists the packages in the catalogue and compares them with the installed version (or says "not installed").
* pkgutil -C now has a long option equivalent; --compare-different.

I'm immediately finding a use for this feature, and hope you do too.

Best regards,
Mark.
