[1.0.0] In-game mod portal not correctly resolving dependencies

Steps to Reproduce:

- Launch the game with no mods loaded.
- Open the mod portal and browse to "Foltik's Spaghetti Modpack"
- Click "Install"

Get the message "Unable to install all required dependencies: There is no compatible version of aai-signals on the mod portal."

- Click "Back"
- Browse to the AAI Signals mod and view the mod, without installing
- Browse back to "Foltik's Spaghetti Modpack"

Now get a different message: "Unable to install all required dependencies: There is no compatible version of aai-zones on the mod portal."

Repeating this process for each mod allows the modpack to finally be downloaded with all of its dependencies.

It appears that the game doesn't realize that older versions of the dependencies exist until I browse to their respective pages.

Expected Behavior:

The first time "Install" is clicked, the mod should be downloaded along with all of its dependencies.

Sorry but this isn't likely to be changed. The issue is due to the mods you've listed not having 1.0 versions and the logic requiring the mod have a version the same as the factorio_version it is.

We aren't releasing any new 1.0 versions and 1.1 won't install mods not marked as 1.1 compatible which will make everything work correctly when they are.

The mods in question appear to have both 1.0 and 1.1 versions, and I can even correctly download the 1.0 versions from the in-game browser. It seems more like the game just isn't recognizing these other versions as available for download when it should be?

See this mod, for example:

In fact that mod has no 1.0 version. It has a 0.18 version.

Oh I see, it has to be the *exact* version, not just compatible. Unfortunate.
