The uninstall / reinstall behavior is causing problems for my project as well. @lukemgriffith Is there anything I can do to help with your hotfix? Or is this issue truly up for grabs if I wanted to take a crack at it?

Been a long time since I've worked on this. I cant remember anything of my PR please go ahead :)
