Though below is for ARMA 2, it STILL is true and VALID TODAY:
"Addon signatures are a way to reduce cheating in Armed Assault. They are used to detect data files modified by anyone else but the addon creator. They are based on strong cryptographic principles (private/public key pairs), therefore hacking around them is very hard.
Addon is signed by its creator using a private key, while the public key is used by the game to verify that the addon has not been modified. "
See: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/ArmA:_Armed_Assault:_Addon_Signatures
As a mod author myself, I have NO CLUE as to the error you are seeing, if anything, I would suspect THIS MOD is 'calling' for OTHER MODS, thus the 'incomplete' warning, which is 'detected' by ARMA when reading the mod's config file...JUST A GUESS.... ;)
:)
You will see the 'different lights' and you can still join. As stated, personally, I just ignore. If I join, I join. If I can not, I do not have a certain mod(s) loaded.
Again, I would also just ignore it. If you can join, it IS working! ;)
Do note, my 'knowledge' on SOME of this is 'Alpha/Beta ARMA', so some of it MAY have changed...I do not think so though...
And you see this with MANY mods, not just this one, thus why I just IGNORE IT. I got the mods? I can join... That's it.
Good luck to ya though!
:)
Since I am NOT going to load ARMA to 'verify', I will tell you what I THINK it is:
#1:
I think the green icon indicates that it is NOT an 'official' ARMA/Bohemia item, where as red does.
You will see this 'green icon' with other mods too, and has been in A3 for years, if not since the alpha version (do not remember, so long ago).
PERSONALLY, if I see the mod list and I have the mods listed, I IGNORE ALL icons...and just select JOIN.
#2:
This ALSO could be when (and I do not your 'knowledge' of A3), but Bohemia changed the format of mods of units, vehicles, things, etc. It is POSSIBLE, that this mod has the OLD format, thus what you see. Bear in mind this 'format swap over' was about 7+ years ago...so it may not be the reason...and as THIS has been many years ago, I am not even sure if the 'modern' A3 can even use the 'older' formats anymore...?? ;) I do NOT think this is the reason and I think those old formats are DEAD.
The A3 launcher was never known to be the 'best' launcher around. As an example, you can not put a space in a profile name, yet you can go into Win Explorer and put in the space and the launcher will work with it and SAVE it JUST FINE! YOU just can not create a new profile and put a space in the name (via the launcher), so it is NOT the 'best launcher' around, i.e, this MAY be a 'bug'.
#4:
"It's ARMA!" - An old and classic answer to all of your ARMA concerns! ;)
Just do what I and appears what others do too...you got the mods, just select JOIN and ignore everything else! ;)
:)
;)
among other things
For example (by default) you can not put down trees or boulders in the editor. When creating a map, you can.
Hope this helps ya a tad!

Use THAT GitHub link in the above page - Problem Solved!
It STILL is NOT an 'easy task'. As someone who does script modding for ARMA and has some map building experience with DOOM and Half-Life, the 'new' method is a 1000 times better! Still a pain to do, but a LOT EASIER! It STILL will be hard and take some work.
It APPEARS the 'new method' removes about 80% - 90% of the work once required (manual/old method).
