In terms of comparing packages, if you’re doing that visually then
you are likely to have problems anyway, unless your eyes and brain
work far better than most humans.  We can make that much easier by
providing libxo output in pkg and allowing you to have a simple jq
script that tells you what the differences are.

pkg can already expose the entire content of a package in json or ucl
via:
$ pkg info --raw --raw-format [json|json-conpact|yaml|ucl] name

Exposing  the entire content of a package is not a root of cause.
Question in comapring of two different setup with different behaviour
and search cause of difference.

Case of only a few monolitic packages is essentiality simple then case
of 1000 combined packages.

It would be nice to have pkg(8) show packages in tree form, with option
to show just top-level meta packages or packages that have no meta.

Perhaps this is possible, but it's not obvious to me.

Thank you.
Can you publish it as a port? I know there is one written in Perl but I like your sh without dependencies.
