Installation fails when Microsoft.VC++2015-2019Redist-x64 is already installed

Oracle.MySQL depends on Microsoft.VC++2015-2019Redist-x64 however when, during installation, winget tries to install this package even when it is installed and installation fails with the error

Another version of this application is already installed.
Expected behavior

Oracle.MySQL installs successfully

Research direction

Start by reproducing winget install Oracle.MySQL in the reported Windows Package Manager environment and verify whether the existing Microsoft.VC++2015-2019Redist-x64 dependency triggers the failure. Trace the package dependency handling involved in that command; done means Oracle.MySQL installs successfully when the dependency is already installed.
