README
pkgtreediff
[
](LICENSE)
pkgtreediff compares the NVRs (name-version-release) of RPM packages in OS package trees and/or installations:
- An OS tree can be referenced by an url or directory containing a tree of rpm files.
- A koji tag.
- A file containing a list(s) of rpm NVRs can also be compared.
- Commands can also be used to get installed RPMs, eg:
"rpm -qa""ssh myhost rpm -qa""podman run --rm myimage rpm -qa"
Usage examples
Containers
Compare the content of two rpm based containers (new added packages in fedora:31)
```bash session $ pkgtreediff --new "podman run --rm fedora:30 rpm -qa" "podman run --rm fedora:31 rpm -qa" libgomp.x86_64 9.2.1-1.fc31 tss2.x86_64 1331-2.fc31 yum.noarch 4.2.9-5.fc31
### Package trees
Package source changes between Fedora 30 and 31 Server at GA (ignoring release bumps):

Summary
Updated: 918
Added: 17
Deleted: 765
Arch changed: 0
Total packages: 1690 -> 942
Hosts
Compare the packages on local and another host:
pkgtreediff "rpm -qa" "ssh otherhost rpm -qa"
Any types of sources can be compared, together with the use of flags.
Koji
Compare koji tags using the koji://tag@kojihub syntax:
pkgtreediff koji://dist-c8-updates-build@centos koji://dist-c8_1-updates-build@centos
Please avoid using koji tag to compare full release as it is more efficient to query URL or CMD trees.
Builds
Builds are available in copr for Fedora, EPEL, and OpenSuSE (more details).
RPM version ordering
RPM version ordering is somewhat involved https://blog.jasonantman.com/2014/07/how-yum-and-rpm-compare-versions/. For example "1.2.1rc1" < "1.2.1" (similarly for tilde).
pkgtreediff tries to implement roughly the rpmvercmp() algorithm, but it has not been verified to behave identically.
