Confuses macOS and iOS/iPadOS apps #336

Description

@rgoldberg

Your Environment

  • mas version: 1.8.1
  • macOS version (system_profiler SPSoftwareDataType -detailLevel mini): 11.2.3 (20D91)

mas Install Method

brew install mas (homebrew-core)

Describe the Bug

This is probably a problem with Apple's store APIs, not with mas.

Apple released Pages, Numbers & Keynote 11.0 on 2021-03-22.

mas commands list the current store version of each of them as 10.3.9, which is the version that is installed on my machine.

The App Store GUI doesn't show these as updates in the "Updates" tab, and the apps have Open buttons (instead of Update buttons) in my Account tab Purchased section.

If I look at the pages for these 3 apps in the App Store GUI, or see them in search results, then they have Update buttons (instead of Open buttons). After seeing an Update button for one of these apps, the Open button in the Purchased section of the Account tab becomes am Update button until I close & reopen the App Store GUI.

To Reproduce

  1. See description above

Expected Behavior

mas indicates that the store versions of Pages, Numbers & Keynote are now 11.0

Even though the App Store GUI is inconsistent, it would be nice if mas could be better than the GUI.

Actual Behavior

mas indicates that the store versions of Pages, Numbers & Keynote are still 10.3.9
