You cannot target a deployment, install or uninstall, of an application more 
than once to the same collection(you cannot have an install and uninstall of 
the same app deployed to the same collection because install/uninstall is the 
action of the deployment). That said you could target an install to one 
collection and an uninstall to another collection with the same members, then 
you would have this problem.

Just saying.

Subject: [mssms] Help me to understand what happens in this application 
deployment scenario

Hi all,

  Was asked a question by a colleague that stumped me for a moment.  I have 
much, much more experience in 2007 SCCM than with 2012, so I suspect there is 
an easy answer to this that I'm missing.

  Consider this scenario.  We have 'Accounting Users Collection' to which we 
create a Required Installation Deployment of 'Account app 1', and send it off 
on its way.  Later, we discover a problem with this application and need to 
remove it, so we create a Required Uninstallation Deployment, and target that 
at the same collection.

  Does the uninstall run?  If so, does the application attempt to reinstall 
itself?  Is there a behavior for controlling how often a Deployment runs on a 
machine, or is it like an Advertisements 'Run once and never rereun', etc.

 Thanks guys,
