Hi,

I recently have an issue on Windows with tlmgr info

This type of command works on Linux (Ubuntu 20)

$ tlmgr info --only-installed --data name,size | head -n 3
alegreya,89411584
amscls,323584
amsfonts,7696384

But it does not on Windows 10 (in powershell)

❯ tlmgr info --only-installed --data name,size | head -n 3tlmgr.pl:
package size not locally!tlmgr.pl: action info returned an error;
continuing.tlmgr.pl: An error has occurred. See above messages.
Exiting.

It seems that the --data field is not parsed correctly.

❯ tlmgr info --only-installed --data name,category | head -n
3tlmgr.pl: package category not locally!tlmgr.pl: action info returned
an error; continuing.tlmgr.pl: An error has occurred. See above
messages. Exiting.

The issue thrown is from here I believe
https://github.com/TeX-Live/installer/blob/06c2ba2ec75038b6815d5452dd643f6e0ac82c81/texmf-dist/scripts/texlive/tlmgr.pl#L3992
but code does not seem to have recently changed

Is it something known already ?

Here is my TeXLive version

❯ tlmgr --version
tlmgr revision 59291 (2021-05-21 05:14:40 +0200)
tlmgr using installation: C:/Users/chris/AppData/Roaming/TinyTeX
TeX Live (https://tug.org/texlive) version 2021

Thank you.
