The 'hotfix' is to be installed by placing package at topmost level of visible USB storage and, either use UYK or just reboot....

Thanks @knc1, I knew that. But seeing the screenshot warning, even before trying UYK, I thought my memory was failing and attempted to install anyway with MRPI, hence the rejection message.

Indeed it was an old hotfix
, As soon as I UYK with the current one, it installed fine without any screenshot warning. I also had the bridge package in a kind of (unecessary) belt + suspenders. Thanks, I'll know better next time.

Yep again. With the new MRPI all the more recent packages, linkss, python, ssaver... install successfully. Thank you so much for taking the time to help.

I struggled a little to install
kual-mrinstaller-1.7.N-r16144.tar.xz. I initially followed the
'simply unpack instructions' which placed nothing in the
extensions/MRInstaller/bin and
lib (explaining why I remained on the old version).
I ended up manually unpacking the
extensions/MRInstaller/data/mrpi-PW2.tar.gz to retrieve the
extension/MRInstaller/bin/PW2/kindletool and
extensions/MRInstaller/lib/PW2/libz.so.1 required for my device.
