Unable to publish-module to NuGet with a required module dependency

Prerequisites

• Write a descriptive title.
• Make sure you are able to repro it on the latest released version
• Search the existing issues.

Steps to reproduce

I'm working on emitting powershell modules from a github repo to nuget. My repo contains 2 modules:

• A: CloudTek.Automation.Shell
• B: CloudTek.Automatuon.K8S

B has a dependency on previously published version of A, therefore I've added it to it's RequiredModules . I've encountered a problem during Publish-Module and I'm attempting to solve it. If my understanding is correct, in order to successfully publish B with Publish-Module, A needs to be installed locally 1st as indicated here.

In my CI I'm using PowershellGet 3.0.17-beta17.

Expected behavior

I'm expecting `Install-Module` on A to succeed while installing B locally from a path on the local filesystem of a GitHub actions runner (ubuntu-latest), so that I can execute `Publish-Module` on B in the next step.

Actual behavior

The pipeline fails as seen here

No response

Start with the module manifest at src/CloudTek.Automation.K8S/CloudTek.Automation.K8S.psd1 and the referenced PrePublish.ps1 and scripts/Publish.ps1 entry points. Reproduce the Install-Module and Publish-Module sequence on the stated PowerShell and Linux environment, then verify that a module with a RequiredModules dependency can be published from the local CI filesystem without the invalid-entry error.
