Cannot upload a package which contains a SemVer2 version number



  • In our local ProGet feeds, I cannot upload a package which contains a semantic versioning 2.0 version number.

    In ProGet UI, I am using the menu "Add Package -> Pull From Another Repository"

    Error message:
    "The package could not be installed.
    The version number provided is invalid, but would be valid if this NuGet feed were migrated to SemVer2. See https://inedo.com/support/documentation/proget/feeds/nuget/nuget-quirks for details on how to migrate."

    The shown ProGet url does not seem to be valid.

    Some information what I used:
    Source feed: https://www.nuget.org/api/v2/
    Package name: NuGet.Build.Tasks.Pack
    Version string: 5.0.0+42a8779499c1d1ed2488c2e6b9e2ee6ff6107766

    According to the error message the nuget feed itself didn't support SemVers2.
    But if this feed really didn't support SemVer 2.0, how could this package, which contains a SemVer2 version number, been uploaded?

    Does ProGet basically supports SemVer2?
    I find different answers to this question.

    In order to use package filters we would like to upgrade to a paid version of ProGet, but if ProGet doens't support SemVer2, we will need to look for an alternative.

    Thanks very much for your help.

    kind regards,

  • Hi,

    ProGet does support SemVer 2.0. Is your target feed (non-Quirks) Nuget? I was able to pull this package into a SemVer 2.0 feed in using the method described above without issue on version 5.1.21.



  • Thanks very much, Scott.
    You helped me by mentioning that the feeds themselves also need to support SemVer 2.0. I wasn't aware of that fact.
    So I just migrated our feeds an now everything works fine.
