Agreed on the close, the main issue, the disorganisation of the

A separate report for the missing dependency was filed.

I hereby exhort the extension developers to step up their game with
the upgrades, but they are not listening and I cant ask anyone to do a
favor that's all we can do with this bug :)

Regards,
tg
