Is the quasar binary installed twice? #909

Dear maintainer

I just noticed there are 2 quasar binaries, one inside ~/.kodi/addons/plugin.video.quasar/resources/bin/linux_x64/quasar and one in ~/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/plugin.video.quasar/bin/linux_x64/quasar

What is even weirder is that they are exactly the same

$ md5sum .kodi/addons/plugin.video.quasar/resources/bin/linux_x64/quasar 
a2a419b35c77ec0937c7baed31c79361  .kodi/addons/plugin.video.quasar/resources/bin/linux_x64/quasar

$ md5sum .kodi/userdata/addon_data/plugin.video.quasar/bin/linux_x64/quasar 
a2a419b35c77ec0937c7baed31c79361  .kodi/userdata/addon_data/plugin.video.quasar/bin/linux_x64/quasar

Is it the way it's supposed to be? Can or should I delete one of them, and if so, which one? Oddly enough, the log does not say which one is used by kodi.

My enviroment: debian testing x64, kodi 17.6, quasar 0.9.78 for linux x64. Quasar was installed ~20 days ago, so it was not caused by any upgrade. I will also check if the same happens at a friend's windows system (windows 7 x64, kodi 17.6, quasar 0.9.78 for windows x64) and report if it does.

Any logs will be uploaded upon request. Thank you.

Same thing happens on my pi zero installation as well

# md5sum .kodi/addons/plugin.video.quasar/resources/bin/linux_arm/quasar
5123ef5566c54acd201e967b0df5aa27  .kodi/addons/plugin.video.quasar/resources/bin/linux_arm/quasar

# md5sum .kodi/userdata/addon_data/plugin.video.quasar/bin/linux_arm/quasar
5123ef5566c54acd201e967b0df5aa27  .kodi/userdata/addon_data/plugin.video.quasar/bin/linux_arm/quasar

Libreelec 8.2.1, kodi 17.6, quasar 0.9.78 for arm.

The question was answered by the dev of elementum, a fork of quasar, here, so I am closing this
