Hi,
I'm wondering why this area exists:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/gretl/files/addons/
Is it supposed to collect compatible versions of addons for outdated
gretl versions?
Yes. And it's also the arena from which the current versions of addons
are downloaded (via the "Check for addons" dialog).
This reminds me of something I need to look into: do we currently
block download/installation of (non-addon) packages that require a
gretl version higher than the running gretl instance? (We should, but
I'm not sure we do.)
