Comment (by lt_henry):

 Ok, my fault. But I have to say it was a bit hidden...


 {{{
 #pkgman search -aiD
 }}}

 That lists installed packages showing short name, version and
 architecture. Just what any unix user expects from respective package cli.
 Syntax is a bit tricky... but anyone who have worked with Archlinux pacman
 will find it even friendly :D

 However, for the package contents part, seems there is no other way than
 specifying full package path. I think would be handy (tbh I find it almost
 mandatory) to list package contents with only package name.

 Is there a situation where two packages are installed with the same name?
