Description

Per #3307 (Plugin Installer declines to update plugin), the Plugin Installer will indicate Plugin reinstalled correctly even when the plugin was in fact not installed correctly.

Since Plugin reinstalled correctly appeared erroneously, the UI is misinforming the user.

Actually the plugin is reinstalled correctly, it just wrongly reports to QGIS its version number. Installer is prepared to cope with dozens errors occuring in plugins, but not for each one of course. We're just working on a new plugin system, yet more "authorproof" and carrying on metadata consistency :)
