PR Summary
This PR conditionally adds the package prerelease string to the to-be-installed package version name (passed to
InstallVersion()
) insideInstallHelper.BeginPackageInstall()
PR Context
Currently, the version string is backfilled with the package's raw Version field if
NormalizedVersion
was not returned by the package management service. This causes a difference in behavior:NormalizedVersion
, the prerelease string is included inNormalizedVersion
and is included inpkgVersion
as a result.System.Version
does not include prerelease info and as-such the prerelease string is not included inpkgVersion
.This PR reconciles the second case to include prerelease strings, aligning it with the first.
Fixes #1680.
Concerns
I don't have visibility into
NormalizedVersion
behavior on other package management services (only Artifactory and PSGallery), so I'm not 100% sure ifpkgToInstall.Prerelease
is the correct field to rely on.PR Checklist
