[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #48294] pkg update errors on non-forge packages

[Mike Miller]

Update of bug #48294 (project octave):

                  Status:                    None => Confirmed              
                 Summary: pkg update does not handle forign packages well. =>
pkg update errors on non-forge packages

Follow-up Comment #1:

Output when trying to update with a locally installed package named
"nothing":


>> pkg update
error: get_forge_pkg: package not found: "nothing".  Maybe you meant
"mapping?"
error: called from
    get_forge_pkg at line 84 column 5
    pkg at line 542 column 27


And the entire pkg update transaction errors out at that point. It should
instead just print a warning that a given package was not found on the Octave
Forge server and continue updating the rest of the packages.
