Request: `Winget search Datalust.Seq` is 2 major versions behind, can the Winget manifest be updated?

Open mistyn8 opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Having recently rebuilt a PC and tried to automate my setup with winget, seq didn't seem to want to work. Eventually determined that it was down to no Kestrel with localhost cert..

And that was because version 7.0.7449.0 had been installed..

Reverting to fetching the MSI installed from https://datalust.co/download is version 9.2.12250 and all worked fine again.

So not really a bug, more a request to update the winget manifest ;-)

Thanks for the report @mistyn8. Fixing up our winget manifest has been on our radar for a while. As I understand it, the problem basically boils down to winget deciding at some point that your MSI version must match what appears in Programs and Features, which isn't true of Seq so we haven't been able to update since then. Fixing that isn't exactly trivial (nothing to do with MSI is trivial), but the feedback is helpful for our planning :+1:
