Hi Alexander,

Thanks for the report.

At the moment, I'm trying to find time to package the latest version
of anki, which is a major undertaking (huge changes to the software
architecture).  If that fixes this problem, great, if not, we can
certainly add a hard dependency for the time being.

Best wishes,

   Julian
