This module finds out first, what is the version current installed in the system, and then provide an uninstall string if this version is meant to be uninstalled.ДЇor clarity sake, the module only removes the versions provided in the javaplugin64::params class, but don't worry, you can provide your own requirements and uninstall strings there.
