What You Are Seeing?

When I am doing choco upgrade all:

You have erlang v26.2.5.5 installed. Version 27.1.2 is available based on your source(s).

Please go back and add the full output log. Without that we won't be able to look at the issue.

@mio-19 Can you go back and that to the description and delete your comment? Please ensure you are using code blocks (starting with three backticks and ending with three backticks).

@mio-19 when raising an issue, there are instructions to tell you what to do. Add the logs to a gist and go back to the original description and add the link to it.

I am very sorry for that. Now it is fixed

[corbob]

So I think I have a reproduction using our existing testing packages:

# On the vagrant box in the tests directory after it's stood up run:
choco source add -n local -s 'C:\Users\vagrant\AppData\Local\Temp\chocolateyTests\packages'
choco source disable -n chocolatey
choco install hasdependency --version 1.0.1 
# Pin the package so it can't be upgraded as we do have newer versions available.
choco pin add -n hasdependency
choco upgrade isexactversiondependency

This is tangentially related to #3461 which we fixed in 2.4.0 where a downgrade could be caused. However, it's not causing a downgrade it's causing a reinstall. An additional check should be added to ensure we're not reinstalling a package without --force being provided.
