Comment (by folletto):

 I see your point, it could trigger some confusion.

 Maybe we can be even more explicit? Instead of "old" we say: "Remove
 current and install version 1.0.0" (the version number from above), only
 in the case of an "older" version being uploaded.

 Would be difficult to introduce the dynamic version in the "old" scenario?

 Otherwise, we can just go back to specify "uploaded", without a special
 case for "old".
 It might work regardless given the highlight in red just above.
