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
