Fails to install after uninstall

[n-epifanov]

Once asdf uninstall erlang <version> is done it becomes impossible to install it again:

$ asdf install erlang 25.3
asdf_25.3 is not a kerl-managed Erlang/OTP installation
The asdf_25.3 build has been deleted

No such version

That's because entry to otp_installations is added but not removed, then there's a check on that entry and installation fails:

I had the same problem and what fixed it for me was actually uninstalling the plugin and installing it again. We need a permanent solution though.
