Hi Siep, hi all,

> [tlmgr] info --data name,localrev,remoterev,cat-version,category,shortdesc

I have committed code such that for all the "cat-*" fields there are two
more variants
	lcat-version
	rcat-version
etc, referring to local and remote infos, respectively.

In the json output and additional field
	rcataloguedata
(type hash) is available.

Thus, Siep, with new tlmgr (from today on in tlcritical) you can do
	info --data name,localrev,remoterev,lcat-version,rcat-version,category,shortdesc
to get the complete info.

Here some examples:
$ tlmgr info --data lcat-version,rcat-version pxchfon
1.7c,1.7d

$ tlmgr info --json pxchfon |json_pp
[
   {
      "available" : true,
      "binfiles" : {},
      "binsize" : {},
      "catalogue" : null,
      "cataloguedata" : {
         "contact-repository" : "https://github.com/zr-tex8r/PXchfon",
         "ctan" : "/language/japanese/pxchfon",
         "license" : "mit",
         "topics" : "japanese font-supp",
         "version" : "1.7c"
      },
      .....
      "rcataloguedata" : {
         "contact-repository" : "https://github.com/zr-tex8r/PXchfon",
         "ctan" : "/language/japanese/pxchfon",
         "license" : "mit",
         "topics" : "japanese font-supp",
         "version" : "1.7d"
      },

Best

Norbert
