The 0.7.3.1 version on CP's site with "fx+sm" in the filename works for
me with the latest Linux 32-bit SM (.21) once it's been told about
recent SM versions. You can run it through the Add-on converter at
<https://addonconverter.fotokraina.com/> to get a working version; so
it's just the installation metadata being pessimistic and not the core
code failing.

Whereas with PrefBar as you describe the installation metadata is too
optimistic, incorrectly claiming compatibility with newer SM versions.
