Brief description of your issue

Attempting to install a package, I get an error message: "No applicable installer found; see logs for more details."

I first noticed this with upgrade --all failing to upgrade many packages without any warnings/errors. Then tried to uninstall/reinstall packages manually and discovered this issue.

Steps to reproduce

Tried this with a number of applications (installer types), including:

  • winget install OpenTTD.OpenTTD (nullsoft)
  • winget install Microsoft.PowerToys (burn)
  • REALiX.HWiNFO (inno)

All gave the same error, non of them installed correctly.

Downloading the installer (from the manifest file) and running it directly works without issue.

Expected behavior

Correctly install the application, or provide a helpful error message.

Actual behavior

Nothing happens; useless error message.

Still seeing this issue. The log message has become better at least.

[...] Required locales: [en-GB, en-US, en] Or does not satisfy compatible match for Preferred Locales: [en-IE, en-US, en-GB, de-DE, ja]

Same issue for me, for the following update

Epic Games Launcher    EpicGames.EpicGamesLauncher    1.3.82.0 1.3.93.0  winget

I was able to force an update with this:

winget upgrade EpicGames.EpicGamesLauncher --locale en-US

The cause seems to lie in the manifesto. In which the entry InstallerLocal has been added.

The problem is indeed a missing InstallerLocale in the manifest and how it is handled (or lack thereof) in the ManifestComparator. This omittance will be problematic, if settings.json contains installBehavior > preferences > locale or --locale is used.

Unless InstallerLocale is present, Manifest::ManifestInstaller::Locale will be an empty string. This is even visible in the log message, "Installer locale does not match required locale: Required locales [...]", which should display the required locale:

std::string ExplainInapplicable(const Manifest::ManifestInstaller& installer) override
{
std::string result = "Installer locale does not match required locale: ";
result += installer.Locale;
result += "Required locales: ";
result += m_requirementAsString;
result += " Or does not satisfy compatible match for Preferred Locales: ";
result += m_preferenceAsString;
return result;
}

The problem is likely just a small mishap, just a few lines above, which happened in commit 4b613b3. For a Preferred Locale a match is always made, if the Installer Locale is empty. This code path is not taken, unless the locale is what is currently installed. This is exactly why one would like to use --locale, override the locale derived from the currently installed version.

if (installer.Locale.empty() ||
Locale::GetDistanceOfLanguage(preferredLocale, installer.Locale) >= Locale::MinimumDistanceScoreAsCompatibleMatch)

However, in case of a Required Locale, the empty Installer Locale is not checked. This code path is not taken, if there is no Required Locale present, i.e. --locale or a corresponding settings.json setting.

if (Locale::GetDistanceOfLanguage(requiredLocale, installer.Locale) >= Locale::MinimumDistanceScoreAsPerfectMatch)

Unless there is a match (and for an empty string there is none), GetDistanceOfLanguage returns 0.0 (more precisely, this is what GetDistanceOfClosestLanguageInList sets as the distance, if no match is found or either [or both] of the input strings are empty).

So, to summarize, at the moment installing a problematic package is not possible with --locale (manifest is missing InstallerLocale) or without --locale (manifest PackageLocale and installed locale do not match; the reported installed version is not necessarily correct, but this is obviously the problem with the installer).
