I had a similar issue in the recent past and was able to come up with a
solution using the built-in package.el. Not sure how to make it work
with use-package, but that at least seems to solve the issue of it not
installing the ELPA version.

Not really sure if the version installed is the one that Emacs actually
uses, though, I am on Emacs 28.0.91 and all of the built-in packages I
have are the same version as their ELPA counterpart, so Emacs seems to be
prioritizing the built-in version. It could be that this is only the
case because they're both the same version; and seem as I'm traveling
ATM I couldn't test it against Emacs 27, so it would be great if you
could check it.

Cheers,
