That would be the best solution, short of a central managed plugin system…

I’ve have seen already two blender addon managers that handle automatic updates for the github addon library one made by nutti as an external software https://github.com/nutti/Blender-Add-on-Manager and one made by CGcookie thats integrated inside blender https://github.com/CGCookie/blender-addon-updater

So I have high hopes someday we have this kinda autoupdate and search addon tool inside blender trunk.
I have to say that if someone in core blender team is reading this I suggest to look up Minion addon manager that is best and most intuitive addon manager I have ever seen and could be great foundation for blender too https://minion.mmoui.com/

BoolTool and Carver MT are now fixed. (Carver 1.1.8 should be available in the tomorrow build - so 27th Feb one, Bool Tool was fixed before).
The change itself is relatively small from a script side. Just commenting out the Some_boolean_Object_variable.solver = line will make the script work again. For instance in Carver it is the lines:

BoolMod.solver = bpy.context.scene.CarverSolver

For more advanced stuff the versioning can be used:

if bpy.app.version < (2, 79, 2):
    BoolMod.solver = bpy.context.scene.CarverSolver

That will make it work on 2.79a but disabled on master.

I work with hardops, decal machine, boxcutter, and cuber. When I go to the Modifier tab > Boolean, I see in the Boolean modiefier an option to choose the solver: Bmesh or Carve. I didn’t see that in blender of 24 februari 2018’s download. Is that option gone in the modifier?

Carver has been removed hasn’t it?

[lijenstina]

Yes, the Carver library for booleans has been removed from Blender in master (daily builds). Now only Bmesh is available.
