Research direction

Start by reproducing an upgrade of all packages with the Git package's optional /GitOnlyOnPath argument and observe why the imagemagick.app upgrade reports the name=value parsing error. Trace the package-argument handling involved and determine whether the unrelated error can be prevented or correctly attributed.
