Don't require compat bounds for package which don't exist #530

Open giordano opened 10 months ago

giordano commented 10 months ago

https://github.com/JuliaRegistries/General/pull/94736#issuecomment-1793420070 initially complained that I didn't have compat bounds on Printf, which is a stdlib but doesn't exist in the registry at the moment, so I added it in https://github.com/JuliaPhysics/Measurements.jl/pull/161, with the result that the package now is uninstallable in Julia v1.0-1.6 because Printf doesn't exist: https://github.com/JuliaPhysics/Measurements.jl/issues/162. I don't think automerge should suggest adding compat bounds on packages which don't exist in the registry in the first place.

The answer here is that we need to add them to the registry.

Sure, but consistency checks should prevent these situations :slightly_smiling_face:
