Describe the problem

Arduino library authors may specify library dependencies in the depends field of the library.properties metadata file. When using Library Manager to install a library that specifies dependencies which are not already installed, the user is offered the installation of the dependencies.

🐛 This dialog is currently presented even when the dependencies are already installed.

To reproduce

1. Use Library Manager to install the "ArduinoRS485" library.
2. Use Library Manager to install the "ArduinoModbus" library.
   (this library specifies a dependency on the "ArduinoRS485" library)
   🐛 A dialog appears which erroneously claims:

   The library ArduinoModbus:1.0.6 needs another dependency currently not installed:

       - ArduinoRS485

   Would you like to install the missing dependency?

Expected behavior

Dependencies installation dialog only appears when dependencies are not already installed.

Additional context

The issue occurs even after a restart, so it is not specific to the dependency being installed in the same session as the dependent library, as was done in the demo for the sake of simplicity.
