What You Are Seeing?

After upgrading cli and gui to v2.0.0 i can't upgrade packages.
On the GUI it just closed saying it's impossible

What is Expected?

Upgrading googleChrome shouldn't depend on miktex to upgrade

How Did You Get This To Happen?

On the CLI I have more details:

Additional Context

No response

[pauby]

Please see the upgrading guide around version constraints.

To resolve the version constraint, miktex and miktex.install should be at the same version.

'miktex.install 21.8.0' is not compatible with 'miktex 22.10.0 constraint: miktex.install (= 22.10.0)'.

It looks like you have miktex.install 21.8.0 and miktex 22.10.0. But miktex 22.10.0 needs miktex 22.10.0, and you have 21.8.0. Upgrade miktex.install to 22.10.0 using choco upgrade miktex --version 22.10.0 to resolve it.

Upgrading googleChrome shouldn't depend on miktex to upgrade

googlechrome doesn't depend on miktex. miktex and miktex.install have a dependency constraint that cannot be resolved, so you need to resolve it manually. Chocolatey CLI is telling you something is broken, and it cannot fix it for you.

Ok, so it's a feature, not a bug. I think that the fact that unrelatable packages block an upgrade is debatable, but I'm sure there's a serious reason behind it.
What is really annoying is that you can't understand the problem when you're using the gui: if I remember well, when i clicked console output, the windows closed before I had the chance to see the underlying problem (edit: and the error message after didn't mention this conflict), and there was no visual cue on the miktex icons either to indicate a conflict to resolve.

This would be something to bring up on the ChocolateyGUI repository.

@YamamotoKaderate would it be possible for you to run the following command:

Get-ChildItem $env:chocolateyinstall/lib

And then provide the output here in this issue?

The reason that I ask is that the miktex packages are not being shown in the output that you provided for installed packages, which we are assuming you got from running the choco list command. We want to confirm what folders are contained within your chocolatey/lib folder.

[YamamotoKaderate]

Sorry, i ran the choco list after uninstalling the miktex packages. I'll bring the issue on the ChocolateyGUI repo

[Julibe]

I resolved the issue by navigating to C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\lib and removing the problematic installation.

this worked for me

@Julibe @jpdralc I'm glad you got this resolved, but doing this is going to break your system at some point and is unsupported.

Thanks, that could be true, but I struggled with this issue for multiple days, searched extensively, and surprisingly, by simply removing one installation, it was fixed, and nothing else broke.

[OSmall]

I resolved the issue by navigating to C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\lib and removing the problematic installation.

This also worked for me. Offending library was winscp. I deleted both the winscp and winscp.install folders. Then, choco install winscp -y

@Julibe @jpdralc I'm glad you got this resolved, but doing this is going to break your system at some point and is unsupported.

I probably should have taken the below approach.

It looks like you have miktex.install 21.8.0 and miktex 22.10.0. But miktex 22.10.0 needs miktex 22.10.0, and you have 21.8.0. Upgrade miktex.install to 22.10.0 using choco upgrade miktex --version 22.10.0 to resolve it.
