Hm, yeah, that definitely sounds like a resolver bug. Did you report it? I'm curious to see if it was fixed.

I suspect in GP's case there was something blocking the intersected range. That should work perfectly.

The poetry author doesn't want to support package version range overrides like yarn does [1]. His call I suppose, but I think it's the one major flaw in the otherwise giant step that poetry takes forward.

I did not report it because I found somebody else had already reported it and it was a WONTFIX (for reasons I don't immediately recall).
