well, you're using a cloudbees distribution by the looks of it (2.263.2-cb-4), I assume it's related to that

Sounds like the request is to add a checksum or whatever and restart Jenkins if they change

Somewhat intentional I think so that you don’t need to have an empty :. Ideally update your file, but a PR with a test that makes both versions work would...

Yeah it’s a bit of a pain, possibly the error should be relaxed if there’s a compatible version declared elsewhere in the file. We’ve been working around it by using...

I’ll try look at issues in this repo soon, patches very welcome though

That’s the cause of it for you then
