How to update existing Matlab installations with mpm when `mpm update` doesn't exist and `mpm install` won't install on top of an existing installation

[krasingneves]

We use environmental management (e.g., Ansible, Chef, SaltStack, etc) to manage developer machines and on-prem CI infrastructure.

Right now, mpm update doesn't exist, and mpm install won't install on top of an existing installation. There isn't an mpm uninstall to remove an existing installation. It looks like the current option to update Matlab versions is to script a manual uninstall, and then use mpm to install it.

It's not a great option.

1. Is there a better option?
2. When is mpm expected to have support for update and uninstall?

Another vote for this from me, this would be very useful as we are using Ansible too.

Both mpm update and mpm uninstall are in development, but I don't have an estimate for when they will be available. Keep an eye on the changelog for updates.
