Sorting by series on the Kobo readers has been a part of Calibre for as long as I can remember. So you should be fine using whatever the last supported version of Calibre will run on your OS so you can rename your series easily. It doesn't need to be the most current. The KoboUtilities plugin will handle the new series sorting perfectly, many of us have already made use of it before Calibre has added the feature in probably today's update.
Thanks for that information I have always added series data in Calibre for my side-loaded books, though I don't recall it having any effect when the books were sent to the e-reader (probably because Kobo did not yet have the series sorting feature?) So I guess I just need to fire up my elderly MacBook Pro (2010 model) and import my Kobo series books into Calibre so everything is in one place.
