Hello,
I've deployed WPAT Community on a network of approximately 80 Windows workstations.
I don't understand how updates work.
For example:
I imported tis-nextcloud version 3.0.1-1 using the "Import from internet" function into my private repository.
I deployed this Nextcloud version to all 80 Windows workstations.
The tis-nextcloud version 3.0.2-3 is now available through the "Import from internet" function. How do I update my 80 workstations to Nextcloud 3.0.2-3?
I tried importing tis-nextcloud 3.0.2-3 into my private repository, and then for one of the 80 workstations, I clicked on "Check for updates," but the new version 3.0.2-3 isn't detected as an update.
I removed the Nextcloud 3.0.1-1 package from my private repository, leaving only the Nextcloud 3.0.2-3 package in my repository. I then clicked "Check for updates" on one of the 80 machines... but the new version 3.0.2-3 is still not detected as an update for that machine.
What should I do?
I deployed Nextcloud 3.0.1-1 on each of the 80 machines via right-click, then "Add Dependency," checked the box corresponding to the Nextcloud 3.0.1-1 package, and then clicked "Start Installation." Nextcloud installed perfectly on each machine.
Do I need to remove the dependency on the Nextcloud 3.0.1-1 package and add the dependency on the Nextcloud 3.0.2-3 package for the update to work?
Thank you for your help, sincerely,
Ed

The official documentation states: https://www.wapt.fr/fr/doc/wapt-concept/index.html
"For each dependent package, the local WAPT agent will automatically retrieve the latest version. Therefore, if multiple versions of Freemind are available in the repository, the WAPT agent will always retrieve the latest version, unless you have pinned the version for compatibility with other tools."
In my private repository, I have two Nextcloud packages:
I don't understand why the new version of the Nextcloud package, 3.0.2-3, doesn't trigger a "Need upgrade" message.

I think I understand.
WAPT compares certain information at the package level to identify whether a package from a previous version can be replaced by a package from a newer version in the private repository?
For Nextcloud, there are two package versions available online: 3.0.1-1 and 3.0.2-3.
Do I have to wait for version tis-nextcloud 3.0.1-1 to be released online before I can update my Nextcloud package in my private repository?
That's how I've observed it working with other packages (for example, Notepad++, Adobe Reader).
