Amongst others...
Windows will fail to create the local file in package-cache due to the colon in the name...

Gary do you have the name of the package?
And yes we should check that. I know that luc wrote some doc to make sure that package names would not contain stupid characters.

It seems that having $: in the package name for certain updates is causing
the save to local package cache to error on Windows (unsurprisingly).

Perhaps worth having a sanity check before the package name is accepted
since it eventually gets to the filesystem.
