[TYPO3-english] Uncaught exception in Extension Manager

[Markus Klein]

Hi, ran into the same problem.

It is even worse. I changed the dependencies locally, such that lang_menu also requires the current version, but the dependency information is fetched from TER!!!

Couldn't get it to work without removing lang_menu

Kind regards
Markus
