This is a bug in UniPrint and Hermes: the reason we have the System
Merge tool is to prevent this exact situation: apps shouldn't be
shipping their own modules internally because there will inevitably be a

I'm sure they've done this in the name of ease of installation, but it
just messes stuff up for everyone else :(
