Title: Message Title

Michael Luck created an issue   Puppet / PUP-11203 puppet module upgrade often reports the wrong module when resolving dependency issues Issue Type: Bug Assignee: Unassigned Components: Modules Created: 2021/08/06 2:02 PM Priority: Normal Reporter: Michael Luck Puppet Version: 6.23 Puppet Server Version: 6.16 OS Name/Version: Any In a lot of cases, when running a puppet module upgrade if there are dependency issues, the wrong module is recommended. This forces the admin to need to grep through manifests to find the correct one Desired Behavior: Puppet should better detect which module is failing dependencies Actual Behavior:   Example: Upgrading puppet-nodejs from version 7.0.1 to latest with puppetlabs-stdlib 6.6.0 and wazuh-wazuh 4.0.4 installed   puppet module upgrade puppet-nodejs   Error: Could not upgrade module 'puppet-nodejs' (v7.0.1 -> latest) There are 3 newer versions No combination of dependency upgrades would satisfy all dependencies Dependencies will not be automatically upgraded across major versions Upgrading one or more of these modules may permit the upgrade to succeed: - puppetlabs-stdlib Use `puppet module upgrade --force` to upgrade only this module Puppet recommends updating puppetlabs-stdlib however version 6.6.0 satisfies the dependency requirement on Forge for nodejs (puppetlabs/stdlib (>= 4.25.0 < 8.0.0))   After grepping which modules contains nodejs, it is found that the wazuh module's manifest has nodejs as a dependency with version >= 3.0.0 < 8.0.0 specified.   Puppet should be able to determine this on its own.
