Visiting /admin/upgrade may lead to a server error

Hi David,

coming from Internal Server Error on Upgrade page, we wanted to report that our Discourse instance on https://community.panodata.org/ trips with the same error.

ArgumentError (Malformed version number string < 3.2.0.beta2) lib/version.rb:44:in `block in find_compatible_resource' lib/version.rb:44:in `each' lib/version.rb:44:in `sort_by' lib/version.rb:44:in ` 

We are running 3.1.0.beta1 (92bb728fe5).

community.panodata.org is a pretty much vanilla installation, and I just tried to install Custom Header Links and Custom Header Links (icons), in order to customize it a bit. Given that 3.1.0.beta1 isn’t also that old, the issue may be more widespread than anticipated?

It is not a problem at all, we will happily run the CLI upgrade and everything will be good afterwards. We just wanted to make you aware of the fact that not only UI-based Discourse upgrades are impacted, but also the installation of arbitrary plugins, apparently.
