  1. Look at the list of addons that use LAM2 to see which addons you need update.
  2. Download and extract the latest LAM2 version
  3. Go to each addon folder and locate the folder that contains a file called LibAddonMenu-2.0 and a folder called controls
  4. Delete these two and copy the new version.

This made updating the Libs very easy as you only updated the Library Addon. Is this funtionalty available with LAM and ESO? Or is it a ZOS/ESO API limitation?
Yes, you can simply install LAM2 via minion and update it whenever a new version is available.
At least once all versions before r17 have disappeared.

Right now the load order is important for the initialization because code was executed whenever a LAM2 file with a newer version than the previous was loaded into memory.
This should actually not be a problem when a standalone LAM is installed, but for some reason the OptionalDependsOn inside the addon manifest is not considered when ESO calculates the load order and the standalone LAM might get loaded at any time after another addon that includes LAM gets loaded.
