If I undersmuch of what is done by this function can already be done by
pkg ("describe", ...)
which also works for mutiple packages.
pkg ("list")
returns the same info as your function does but for all installed packages.
so pkg_info reduces essentially to the following three lines:
pkg_names = {"secs1d", "ocs"};
a = pkg ("list");
b = a (cellfun(@(x) ismember (x.name, pkg_names), a, "unif", true));
c.
