The previous command may miss some packages that are components of other
packages, so below are commands which produce complete lists:

installed packages:
$ awk '3 == NF {print $1}' /etc/setup/installed.db
$ sed '1d;/\s[01]$/s/\s.*$//' /etc/setup/installed.db

package directories:
$ find <local package directory>/*tp*%3a%2f%2f*%2f/*/release/*/ -type d | \
sed 's!/$!!;s!^.*/!!' | sort -u
but this may include some non-packages, as would similar approaches.
