Correctly parse version string if set to "latest"
Recently Winget allowed to submit download URLs that don't have a specific version label, and just add latest
as a package version in the yaml manifest:
PackageVersion: latest
Winstall parses the latest
string as a regular version, and the result looks like this:
As an option, it can be displayed as Latest
(without the v
).
Or the much better option would be to remove it entirely (unless you want to deal with registry expressions) because there are applications in the Windows Package Manager that already has v
as part of the application version shown in the Control Panel; this means that winstall will show vv20210611
or v.v20210611
rather than v20210611
