Project to compare the packages installed between two hosts registered on the Satellite 6.
Currently we are doing the API call on Satellite to check the Content Host installed packages, compare then and then create a report.
Below a simple example:
$ ./package_profile.py
Type the First CH fqdn: node005.local.domain
Type the Second CH fqdn: refnode01.local.domain

If we add the same machine, then will be expected to see no difference
$ ./package_profile.py
Type the First CH fqdn: refnode01.local.domain
Type the Second CH fqdn: refnode01.local.domain

A lot of things to improve, however, it's a great start point! Hope you enjoy it.
