Description

What type of update are you requesting?

An update of package metadata

Current Package Identifier

JetBrains.IntelliJIDEA.*

Package Version

2023.1.4, 2023.1.5

Please describe the changes you would like to see

Since JetBrains puts internal versions in the DisplayVersion field it needs to be specified in the manifest and for 2023.1.4 and 2023.1.5 it is not. This means that winget has no idea what version is actually installed and it continually shows up as updatable.

See https://github.com/microsoft/winget-pkgs/blob/master/manifests/j/JetBrains/IntelliJIDEA/Ultimate/2023.1/JetBrains.IntelliJIDEA.Ultimate.installer.yaml for reference.

The DisplayVersion for Ultimate 2023.1.5 is 231.9392.1, but that's the only one I have right now.

Research direction

Start with the referenced IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate manifest to see how DisplayVersion is specified, then locate the manifests for versions 2023.1.4 and 2023.1.5. Confirm the appropriate internal DisplayVersion values and update the package metadata so winget no longer reports these installations as continually updatable.
