These constraints now apply to dependencies +found using any dependency provider. + +Some combinations of dependency, host and method do not currently support +discovery of the version. In these cases, the dependency will not be found if a +version constraint is applied, otherwise the `version()` method for the +dependency object will return `'unknown'`. + +(If discovering the version in one of these combinations is important to you, +and a method exists to determine the version in that case, please file an issue +with as much information as possible.) |
