[bug]Updates tab shows versions not yet available #97

Closed SixParQuatre closed 2 years ago

SixParQuatre commented 2 years ago

For instance, today, 2021.3.12f1 shows up but the release notes link throws a 404 and the installer goes to https://unity3d.com/get-unity/download/archive#installer-not-found---version-2021.3.12f1 image Version is 1.0.38

yes, that's due to unity's own system. Apparently sometimes they upload versions, but not make them public yet. (then bit later the actual version is uploaded and made public)

so can consider it as 'early news' of coming versions : )

Do you know how Unity Hub figures out how not to show them ?

That's cool :D but also... it kinds of lowers trust in the app? I can live with it, but less technical peeps who encounters this behaviour the first time they want to use the update tab (and I think it's one of the big added value of this software), might just think it's broken and go back to the Hub, which would be a shame.

it almost feels like that hub has hand picked versions listed there (as they are often late or missing latest releases) and in hub sources, it seems to fetch some list from intranet server (not available outside) image

i guess it could be easy to check some of the recent urls (if they are "active"), just afraid to add extra requests.. but lets see if anyone else notices these.

Anecdote: hilariously, this made me see that Unity has been trying very hard to release 2022.2.0f1: there were version popping up every 3 days for like a month and not until today was it made public
