Class LatestCompatibleConflictManager

This conflict manager can be used to allow only compatible dependencies to be used together (like the strict conflict manager), but it has the advantage of using a best effort algorithm to find a set of compatible dependencies, even if it requires stepping back to older revisions (as long as they are in the set of compatibility).

Here is an example of what this conflict manager is able to do:
Available Modules:

 #A;2->{ #B;[1.0,1.5] #C;[2.0,2.5] }
 #B;1.4->#D;1.5
 #B;1.5->#D;2.0
 #C;2.5->#D;[1.0,1.6]
 

Result: #B;1.4, #C;2.5, #D;1.5
DetailsThe conflict manager finds that the latest matching version of #B (1.5) depends on a version of #D incompatible with what is expected by the latest matching version of #C. Hence the conflict manager blacklists #B;1.5, and the version range [1.0,1.5] is resolved again to end up with #B;1.4 which depends on #D;1.5, which is fine to work with #C;2.5.
