CLI fails with incorrect plugin dependency minimum version requirement

[MarkRx]

The CLI is failing with a false positive incorrect minimum dependency version.

In the example below the active-directory plugin version 2.23 requires a minimum jenkins-configuration-as-code version of 1.35. The update-center and the jar manifest also lists 1.35. The CLI errors out saying that it requires 1.51.

Version

jenkins-plugin-manager: 2.10.0

Reproduction steps

Run the following command: java -jar jenkins-plugin-manager-2.10.0.jar --jenkins-version 2.277.3 --plugins active-directory:2.23 configuration-as-code:1.46 --verbose

Results

Expected result:

The plugins are downloaded as the required minimum dependency versions are met

Actual result:

The CLI fails with an incorrect error

Plugin active-directory:2.23 depends on configuration-as-code:1.51, but there is an older version defined on the top level - configuration-as-code:1.46

This is a user misunderstanding. The plugin installation manager tool installs the most recent version of a dependency unless the --latest false argument is passed.
