You can get a pkginfo display in any of three formats: short, extracted, and long.
The short format is the default. It shows only the category, package abbreviation, and full package name, as shown in The Default pkginfo Display.
The extracted format shows the package abbreviation, package name, package architecture (if available), and package version (if available). Use the -x option to request the extracted format as shown in the next example.
$ pkginfo -x . . .

Using the -l option produces a display in the long format showing all of the available information about a package, as in the following example.
