can't interact with a mod in the app, after the version gets re-uploaded! #7626

Description

@SammyGHG

Please confirm the following.

  • I checked the existing issues for duplicate problems
  • I have tried resolving the issue using the support portal
  • I have ensured my Modrinth App installation is up to date

What version of the Modrinth App are you using?

0.21.4

What operating systems are you seeing the problem on?

Windows

Describe the bug

I can no longer interact with the mod in the Modrinth app after the author re-uploaded it!

Steps to reproduce

  1. Update a mod
  2. wait for the author to re-upload the same mod with a bug fix
  3. watch for the missing 'change version' or 'update' button

Expected behavior

The update button appears exactly as if a new version were available.

Additional context

I tried deleting the mod from the mods folder and re-downloading it from the app, but that only downloaded the second-newest version. When I tried to update to the latest version, an error occurred stating something along the lines of 'This update belongs to a different file'.
I then downgraded the mod to an older version and tried updating it again to the newest, but the same error occured.
So, I deleted it once again and downloaded the latest version from the Modrinth website, and moved it into the mods folder; however, the mod did not show up in the mod list within the Modrinth app. I launched the game anyway and the mod loaded successfully.
After closing the instance, the Modrinth app reloaded and showed the mod again.
By the way, I restarted the Modrinth app between each step but that didn't help at all
