Sometimes lcurse downloads "nolib" version which means the addon needs extra libs and doesn't work #6

Sometimes lcurse downloads "nolib" version for some addons, which means the addon needs extra libs and doesn't work.

Some addons have two versions: one includes the libraries required for the addon to run and another version which doesn't need this. Sometimes, the "nolib" version is listed as the latest version - here's an example: http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/tradeskill-master#t1:other-downloads - and if this version is installed, it doesn't work.

One way of fixing this would be to exclude "nolib" versions automatically (but maybe implement an option to allow installing/updating such addons?).

Could you please double check with the latest version. I'm not totally satisfied with this, as you can't install "-nolib" version at all now. But I guess, that most users will install the no"-nolib" versions. So I can live with it for the time being. Until I have an idea how I want this to be solved.

It works, thanks!

I think it should allow -nolib versions if no other version is available (maybe some addons are only available as -nolib).

It just uses the next version if it is named exactly like the nolib version without the nolib part :) So -nolib will be used in a case if there are only nolib. But the no nolib version will always be prefered if available.

Thanks for your issue and testing!

Thanks again! You made my WoW Linux experience a lot better with this little tool (and most probably quite a few WebUpd8 readers as well)! :)
