pub outdated provides results inconsistent with pub upgrade

Problem

pub upgrade is reporting a different no. of 'newer versions' than pub outdated.

pub upgrade outputs:

21 packages have newer versions incompatible with dependency constraints.
Try `pub outdated` for more information.

pub outdate outputs:

Dependencies are all constrained to the latest resolvable versions.
Newer versions, while available, are not mutually compatible.

# The following defines the version and build number for your application.
# A version number is three numbers separated by dots, like 1.2.43
# followed by an optional build number separated by a +.
# Both the version and the builder number may be overridden in flutter
# build by specifying --build-name and --build-number, respectively.
# In Android, build-name is used as versionName while build-number used as versionCode.

Expected behavior

I would expect that pub outdated would have listed the 21 packages or a least directly mention the count that pub get said were outdated.

e.g.
21 newer versions, while available, are not mutually compatible.

This provides a 'closing of the loop' mentally for a user when comparing these two outputs.

Actual behavior

pub outdated reported that all packages were up to date.

Dependencies are all constrained to the latest resolvable versions.
Newer versions, while available, are not mutually compatible.

[sigurdm]

Hmm i can see how this is confusing.

upgrade counts packages where the current version differs from the latest.
outdated has two counts:

• packages where the current version is different from the "upgradable" (upgradable is what you would get running pub upgrade)
• packages where the current is different from the "resolvable" package (resolvable is the one you would get by removing all constraints from the pubspec and running pub upgrade)

The 21 packages pub upgrade mentions are exactly the 21 packages listed by pub outdated (plus the two overridden), and the ones implied in "Newer versions, while available, are not mutually compatible."

@jonasfj wdyt? should we add the count of "packages not at latest" to the outdated output?

[jonasfj]

Newer versions, while available, are not mutually compatible.

Hmm, yeah, maybe we write something like:

While 21 newer versions is available, they are not mutually compatible.

I do like the "Newer versions" phrasing. I'm probably not the best to come up with a better message.

[bsutton]

You suggest of 'while 21...' seems fine.

The main idea is to close the loop so a user can see that the two pieces align.

[mpoirier101]

I have the same message when using pub upgrade/outdated (async, device_info, package_info)...
But it creates a real problem in my code !

Example:
Target of URI doesn't exist: 'package:device_info/device_info.dart'.
Try creating the file referenced by the URI, or Try using a URI for a file that does exist.

Any idea how can I fix this ?

Thanks!
