Prevent VIPM from building/installing packages with incompatible PPLs

[Albert Geven]

Hi

In the VIPM 2020 beta I tried to install the error logger from CPE. And indeed that worked except that the include ppl was not correct for LV2019 or LV2018 so not useable.

I have send a request to CPE to add those versions but only this morning so somewhat early to expect a reaction.

Is it possible to check for ppl versions or should we leave that to the developer.

Hi Albert,

Thanks for reporting this. Yes, you should certainly contact CPE regarding this issue.

It would be great if VIPM could detect this, yet I think that it might be tricky to try to guess the developer's intentions. Maybe VIPM could warn the package developer of potential problems.
