Conda feeds: some packages not visible in WebGUI

e.rotteveel_1850

We have proget 2024.25.
I have a conda feed where I uploaded the package files in this folder:

https://nextcloud.marin.nl/index.php/s/nmPCLszf6PNMoQC

However, only the "pint" package is visible in the WebGUI, the others are not. My feeling is that there's something about the version normalization that prevents the packages from showing up in the GUI.

The repodata.json files in the win-64 and noarch subfolders look OK though. So when using the Proget channels for installing packages with conda, all seems to work fine.

repodata.json in noarch subfolder:

Thanks for looking into this!

We're still investigating this one, but we'll likely have a fix for it in ProGet 2024.26 this Friday, but if it ends up being more complex than we are expecting, it could be in the following release later this month. Thank you!

Unfortunately it turns out that this is more complicated than we expected. You are correct about it being normalization-related. When packages are added to ProGet, essential identifying metadata like name and version get indexed in the database, and versions are supposed to be normalized when used this way. However, it looks like this normalization is not occurring for Conda packages.

We don't want to just do the obvious fix and start normalizing them, as that could lead to duplicate packages getting added and issues with replication. So, what we propose to do is extend our feed re-index operation to detect nonnormalized versions and fix, and then start normalizing versions consistently.

Long story short - it's not going in tomorrow's release, but we have a plan to get it fixed.

Thanks for the quick reply! We'll await the next release then.
