Description

When running paket install or paket update, with redirects: force set in the paket.dependencies file. Assembly redirects are not getting updated.

See Command.Tests.Unit, Query.Tests.Unit, Services.Tests.Integration for examples where the redirect for Newtonsoft.Json is up to version 6, but the version referenced is version 10.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue with paket install or paket update and redirects: force in paket.dependencies. Compare the generated redirects with the Newtonsoft.Json references in Command.Tests.Unit, Query.Tests.Unit, and Services.Tests.Integration. Done means the redirects update to the referenced version instead of remaining at version 6.
