Install-Package: No match was found for the specified search criteria and package name

I'm unable to use Install-Package for a valid Nuget package (MetadataExtractor) using PS 6.0.2 on Mac. Am I doing something wrong?

@thnk2wn
Support for NuGet v3 sources got added in 1.2.0-preview version of the PackageManagement module, take a look at the release notes for more details.

You can install this preview version using Install-Module command.

Install-Module PackageManagement -Force -Repository PSGallery -AllowPrerelease
# Launch a new PS session

Thanks @bmanikm. It also seems adding "-AllowPrerelease" is required for this.

However after installing and starting a new PS session, installing the package just results in execution hanging indefinitely:

@bmanikm After quite some time it eventually came back with an error:

@bmanikm -AllowPreRelease does not work for me?

Install-Module PackageManagement -Force -Repository PSGallery -AllowPrerelease

EDIT:

This is what fixed this issue for me:

@thnk2wn It looks like all the versions of System.Reflection.Emit.Lightweight and System.Reflection.Emit packages got unlisted on NuGet.org. This is a duplicate of #322.

@turbolego Prerelease versioning support was enabled in 1.6.0 version of the PowerShellGet module. To install the prerelease versions of a module, you need to install the latest version of PowerShellGet first using the instructions provided here

[turbolego]

Thank you @bmanikm !

Worked for me:

PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> Update-Module -Name PowerShellGet
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> Install-Module PackageManagement -Force -Repository PSGallery -AllowPrerelease
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> Install-Package Microsoft.Azure.IoTHub.IoTHubClient
