.. until the APIVersion changes and your addon breaks for no other reason than that a meaningless number changed. $(APIVersion) in manifest is probably the second worst solution to the problem.

Instead, you have to re-upload the same file with a new name when APIVersion changes again.

This is exactly what I meant by "most of these issues would disappear" -- you wouldn't have to re-upload anything if Minion only installed add-ons compatible with the installed version of the game.
