Instead of actually fixing it, load it as out of date, roger. What a trash addon with the “not in range” spam all the time as well. Don’t recommend using it.

"Not in Range"

In any case, that bug is not even caused by the addon, but rather a bug in Blizzard CanInspect API (it does not respect the showError flag being set to false, as it should, as is stated per the documentation).

We have fixed it for them though.
So having TacoTip enabled (more specifically, any addon using LibClassicInspector) will also fix the Blizzard's bug for other addons too.

"Addon is out of date"

The "out-of-date" message is just a nag which means literally nothing.

As people do not only play Wrath, but also Wrath PTR, Classic Era and Classic Era PTR, and as especially the PTR versions receive updates sometimes in very quick succession, I will not be pushing version updates every other day which serve literally no other purpose than to change a number in the .toc files, to remove a completely unnecessary nag message which Blizzard decided to add for some incomprehensible reason.

It is also very easily disabled by just checking a simple box. Literally takes seconds to do.

If you are annoyed by it though, no one will stop you from editing the .toc file yourself and changing the interface version everytime a new client update gets pushed. By all means, go for it. I am not going to, though, as disabling the nag is way faster and easier.
