NAME

       msidiff - compare Windows Installer packages

SYNOPSIS

       msidiff [<option> [<option> ...]] [<diff-options>] <source MSI> <target MSI>

DESCRIPTION

       msidiff compares Windows Installer packages (.MSI files).

OPTIONS

       -t, --tables
              Compare MSI tables as text. This is the default.

       -l, --list
              Compare the file lists in the packages.

       -L, --long-list
              Compare the detailed file lists in the packages.

       -h, --help
              Print a help message and exit.

       -v, --version
              Print version information and exit.

       More than one of -t, -l or -L may be specified.

       <diff-options>  are  passed  to  diff(1).  The first repeated argument of the above or the first argument
       starting with a `-' but not a valid msidiff option starts <diff-options>, the first argument not starting
       with  `-'  ends  them.  By  default, <diff-options> is -Nup for contents, -U0 for others, and -r which is
       always passed.
