Motivation:
In 4.1 List Package Releases it is stated that a server may respond with a
Link
header that contains a pointer to a subsequent page of results. SPM is not checking for thenext
link in theLink
header and so if a registry returns paginated results, only the first page of versions is searched when resolving. This would result in a "version not found" error when in reality the version is present in a subsequent page of results.Modifications:
Respect the
next
link in theLink
header by loading the next page of results and building up a list of versions, continuing until there is nonext
link present in theLink
header of the last result.Result:
Registry servers that serve paginated results now have all their results read.
