Gentlemen, good day to you

For a very long time now I’m using Steam for the flight simulator Cliffs of Dover . Now I have installed the Silent Hunter 5 gold edition dvd (with the updates) on my hard disk. Starting the game for the first time I had of course to identify myself to UPLAY. But after clicking on entry PLAYING, UPLAY led me to Steam and it turned out that I had to download also the Steam version of SH5. That would gave me two installs of the game and that seems a bit superfluous. Besides that some people on the Forum say the Steam version interferes with mods that’s why I would prefer the dvd-install.
How can I play the dvd version without intervention by Steam?
