Describe the bug
After updating a mod, it does NOT uninstall the previous one leading to duplicates of mods you have to manually uninstall to prevent the conflicts. HOWEVER I've noticed this only happens when updating a bunch of mods at once think like 5+ or so maybe too many to answer that prompt on each one of uninstalling previous or installing as another version question that comes up when you update some mods?

To Reproduce

  1. Update several mods at once
  2. Notice an error after deploying said update showing mod conflicts and you see that it's the mod's old version and the new version
  3. Manually uninstall old version of mod and redeploy to fix the conflicts leaving only one copy of the mod

Expected behavior
New mod version uninstalls previous version completely or leaves it as a version you can downgrade to if wanted in a dropdown behavior regardless of number of mods being updated.
