Yes, it does build if I remove the brackets. However, my understanding
was that I needed the brackets to truly "lock down" the plugin
versions. Maybe I've just misunderstood previous discussions and that
this type of lock down is not needed/supported for plugins and that a
plain, single version number is indeed enough.

However, I did perform an additional test to check what happened if I
did want to use "real" version ranges for plugins. This scenario
breaks as well while it work perfectly well with dependencies. So
maybe I did miss some part of the docs where it says ranges are not to
be used for plugins...
