Describe the problem

When updating (or downgrading) libraries that have dependencies on other libraries, a popup is shown with those dependencies and prompting you to install with or without the dependencies

Image

Selecting install all results in below which clearly states that the dependencies were already installed.

Already installed Blues Wireless Notecard@1.6.5
Already installed MKRGSM@1.5.0
Already installed MKRNB@1.6.0
Already installed MKRWAN@1.1.1
Already installed WiFi101@0.16.1
Already installed WiFiNINA@1.9.0
Already installed Arduino_DebugUtils@1.4.0
Downloading Arduino_ConnectionHandler@1.0.1
Arduino_ConnectionHandler@1.0.1
Installing Arduino_ConnectionHandler@1.0.1
Replacing Arduino_ConnectionHandler@1.0.0 with Arduino_ConnectionHandler@1.0.1
Installed Arduino_ConnectionHandler@1.0.1

To reproduce

Upgrade or downgrade a library

Expected behavior

A correct message based on a deeper analysis of dependencies so versions are analysed.

Alternatively a better description like

needs some other dependencies that might or might not be installed or might not be up to date

Arduino IDE version

arduino-ide_nightly-20250311_Windows_64bit

Operating system

Hi @sterretjeToo. Thanks for taking the time to submit an issue.

I see we have another report about this at #721.

It is best to have only a single issue per subject so we can consolidate all relevant discussion to one place, so I'll go ahead and close this in favor of the other.
