I use scoop as a packet manager to install software on Windows. Updating the software just requires scoop update * which is really convenient.

When I ran it just now this error message appeared.

Loading gimp-3.0.2-setup-1.exe from cache.

Already last time I experienced an issue when upgrading gimp which I solved at that time by installing innounp-unicode using

scoop bucket add versions
scoop install versions/innounp-unicode

I checked and innounp-unicode was still present, so why didn’t it work this time?

Simple enough: gimp@3.0.2: decompress error · Issue #15152 · ScoopInstaller/Extras · GitHub explains that Gimp requires the latest version of innounp-unicode and scoop had included it in the upgrade list. However it upgrades alphabetically and since ‘g’ comes before ‘i’ I ran into the error. Once I upgraded it the installation of gimp worked.
