Impossible to upgrade packages

Vote:
 

Hi

Due to package version restrictions it is pretty much impossible to upgrade any package version:

  • EPiServer.CMS.UI 12.16.0 requires TinyMce >4.00
  • EPiServer.Framework 12.12 requires TinyMce >4.00
  • EPiServer.Forms 5.3.1 requires TinyMce <4.00 and >3.2.0

Furthermore there is list of conflicting warnings:

Detected package version outside of dependency constraint: EPiServer.CMS.Core 12.9.3 requires EPiServer.Framework (= 12.9.3) but version EPiServer.Framework 12.11.0 was resolved.
Detected package version outside of dependency constraint: EPiServer.Framework.AspNetCore 12.9.3 requires EPiServer.Framework (= 12.9.3) but version EPiServer.Framework 12.11.0 was resolved.
Detected package version outside of dependency constraint: EPiServer.Hosting 12.9.3 requires EPiServer.Framework (= 12.9.3) but version EPiServer.Framework 12.11.0 was resolved.

NOTHING in my project is directly referenced by version 12.9.3

I understand that somr 3rd parties are lagging behind but that kind of mess in 1st party is pretty sad.

When can this hell be resolved?

By resolved i don't mean forms package updated but situation in which user can pres "update to newest version" and don't worry about all of this mess.
