Trying to upgrade a manually installed mod fails if it conflicts with another mod

Repro:

1. Install Deferred using CKAN
2. Manually install RasterPropMonitor (any version)
3. Hit Refresh in CKAN so that it auto-detects RPM
4. Check the "upgrade" box for RPM and hit Apply

Result:

This may have something to do with the fact that RPM is incorrectly auto-detected; the DLL name is RasterPropMonitor but the module that contains the DLL is RasterPropMonitor-Core.

Hey @JonnyOThan, what happens if you swap steps 1 and 2? I.e., manually install RPM and then try to install Deferred?

It won't let you install:

Thanks, that's what I thought; at the end of step 2, your registry is already in an "inconsistent" state that it's not supposed to be able to get to, since a conflict is sastisfied among the installed mods and DLLs. So what happens after that is kind of beside the point.

The upgrade operation would have removed that conflict though.
