Floating version patterns like '1.* are treated as ranges without a max, 1.*` is [1.*, ) #5097
Description
- Create a NETCore/NETStandard project (PackageReference).
- Have it depend on a package (say NuGetPlayLib) that has versions 1.1.0,1.2.0,1.3.0,2.0.0
- Now edit the csproj file to make the dependency on "1.*"
<ItemGroup> <PackageReference Include="NuGetPlayLib" Version="1.*" /> </ItemGroup> - Remove the versions 1.* from the feeds
- Restore package dependencies for the project
Expected: It should throw an error as it would have if the dependency was specified as:
<ItemGroup> <PackageReference Include="NuGetPlayLib" Version="[1.0.0, 2.0.0)" /> </ItemGroup>
Actual: It resolves to version 2.0.0
