it should be doing upgrading in the background, but it doesn't have a progress meter or status atm.
After it finishes, it will ask you if you want to restart.

Hi there,
since the last update of this addon a few days ago I'm getting a pop up message on starting Kodi that says:
"Your version 1.1.1 of the Python cryptography module is too old. You need at least version 1.7."

I've just checked with command line Python and that says it has version 1.9.

python:
Python 2.7.15rc1 (default, Apr 15 2018, 21:51:34)

[GCC 7.3.0] on linux2

Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

>>> import cryptography

>>> ver = cryptography.__version__

>>> ver

'1.9'

I'm running Kodi 17.6 on Ubuntu 18.04.1.

Any idea where the Version Check is getting version 1.1.1 from!?

Thanks!

on kodi 19 (py3) the addon tries to import the 'distro' library.
since 'distro' isn't part of the standard python library, the addon will crash.
Code:
