Hotfix packages are designed for the UYK updater (Update Your Kindle, a.k.a., the stock OTA updater). They *can* run under MRPI, but it *will* validate them like UYK (meaning they'll fail to pass with a "destroying package" warning on unsupported firmwares).

But, everything that is packaged as a hotfix is also packaged as a standard, unversioned package, too. (i.e., JB bridge for the JB hotfix, and the non _hotfix files for each KUAL Booklet variant).

TL;DR: Never feed MRPI hotfix packages, use the standard one for what you want to install instead. (That'll most likely be coplate's KUAL installer in this context).
