Problems that are caused by the addons themselves should obviously not 
be considered blockers of a release, so we should focus on the issues 
directly caused by g.extension.

IIUC, they all are caused because the addon is either a toolset with 
several modules, or there are library files in the directory or in 
subdirectories (e.g. i.segment.hierarchical and r.estimap.recreation). 
The relevant zip file does contain all necessary files for running the 
addon, so it is g.extension that is looking for info that it shouldn't 
look for.
