winget recommends spurious onenote update

[fehrin1]

Brief description of your issue

With winget update (upgrade) i get the following upgrade recommendation:
Microsoft OneNote - de-de XPFFZHVGQWWLHB 16.0.16731.20636 16.0.17231.20236 msstore
Looking at
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/officeupdates/update-history-microsoft365-apps-by-date
this is not a sensible suggestion:

• 16731.20636 is the latest update from the half year enterprise channel, so there is nothing to update here.
• 16.0.17231.20236 is not the latest update from the monthly enterprise channel, why is it that exactly this version is recommended?

Steps to reproduce

winget update
or
winget upgrade

Expected behavior

No onenote upgrade should be suggested.

Actual behavior

A spurious upgrade is suggested.

I couldn't find identical output (no version, and no "Microsoft"), but it does appear that the MSStore has a package named OneNote:

Installing into a VM, it appears to download and install Office 365:

Can you share logs for this incident?

If it's reproduceable you can append "--verbose-logs --logs" to get verbose logs and open the directory containing the files. I would just need the latest one with the error.

@stephengillie There is a onenote installed via Office 365 Enterprise. The update suggested by winget on top of this installation is spurious.

@denelon I added the log file(s) requested.

[fehrin1]

Hi @denelon any idea on this, it is for me the last remaining problem, apart from this, winget is "clean" for me?

[fehrin1]

I have 16731.20674 in the meantime and still 16.0.17231.20236 is suggested.

[fehrin1]

With winget 1.8 it is still
C:\Users\FEH01589>winget update
Name ID Version Verfügbar Quelle

Microsoft OneNote - de-de XPFFZHVGQWWLHB 16.0.16731.20716 16.0.17231.20236 msstore
1 Aktualisierungen verfügbar.
My guess is that there is some information base for software versions which needs an update too.
Personally i would exclude OneNote from winget updates, it is only a placeholder for a full blown Office 365 installation.
