Current behavior
Arduino-cli installs the same libraries over and over:
$ arduino-cli lib upgrade

The cause seems that I have multiple cores installed:
arduino-cli core list

It does not happen if only the arduino:avr core is installed. I removed the ~/.ardunio15 directory:

After installing the arduino:mbed_nano core, the command starts installing the same library over and over:
$ arduino-cli core install arduino:mbed_nano

Expected behavior
arduino-cli lib upgrade should not install the same libraries over and over when there is no update.
