Install-Module does not respect ModuleVersion or Guid for Required Modules
I use an artifactory server with a nuget repository setup with an internally published location and a cache to psgallery. The end result of this means im able to register a single PSRepository and install both external and internally published modules.
However we have an internal module created called PSLogger which classes with the one found in PSGallery.
I have a module that i wrote that depends on our internal version of PSLogger so I have it included in my manifest file as seen below:
RequiredModules = @(
@{ModuleName = 'Az.Accounts'; ModuleVersion = '2.2.6'; GUID = '17a2feff-488b-47f9-8729-e2cec094624c' },
@{ModuleName = 'PSLogger'; ModuleVersion = '1.0.8'; GUID = 'f892af3d-d369-4eb5-a48a-80017115142f }
)
For the purpose of this ticket, lets say my module is called MarksModule. When I run Install-Module -Name MarksModule -verbose -Repository 'Artifactory'
It will install az.Accounts as expected, it will also install PSLogger, however it ignores the version and guid as it goes and installs this version found here (https://www.powershellgallery.com/packages/PSLogger/1.4.3)
I can confirm PSLogger version 1.0.8 is published to my artifactory repo, however when i download the raw nupkg file and extract the nuspec file i can see the version is correct, but the guid gets dropped.
So there are possibly two issues here, one is the publish doesnt seem to embed the guid into the nuspec file, and 2nd the install-module command ignores version (and guid if it checks the psd1 file)

Thanks @MarkDordoy we will try to address this in newer versions of the module
We have a similar issue with ModuleVersion (not using Guid). See here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/73907636/powershell-module-install-always-installs-latest-dependency-version
Is this relared, or should it be raised as a new issue?
Hi all, @Richard-Payne that issue is likely the same issue as the one @MarkDordoy originally reported. We'll likely have a fix for this out within the next two preview releases. Thanks for the report and update!
Does it work if you specify RequiredVersion
instead in your RequiredModules
?
