Cast/Actor images are not populating on the movie information screen.

Kodi v17.3 on Arch Linux + Plasma KDE.

The cast/actor images are not populating on the movie information screen.
(However Extended Info Script does fully work. From its button and with arrow up on a highlighted actor.)

"Update library on startup" is switched on in "Media Settings >> Library >> Video library".
"Download actor thumbnails" is switched on in "Media Settings >> Videos".
I also cleaned the library twice in "Media Settings >> Library >> Video library".

Then I bumped into this forum thread : https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid...pid2600920
And checked the 2 addons mentioned.

The addon metadata.themoviedb.org is reported as version 3.9.5 by the addon My Addons browser in Kodi.
But when I look into the file it is at version 3.9.2 :
/usr/share/kodi/addons/metadata.themoviedb.org/addon.xml
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<addon id="metadata.themoviedb.org"
       name="The Movie Database"
       version="3.9.2"
       provider-name="Team Kodi">

CHOP! CHOP!

Than the other addon metadata.common.themoviedb.org.

In /usr/share/kodi/addons/metadata.common.themoviedb.org/addon.xml I see version 2.14.0 :

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<addon id="metadata.common.themoviedb.org"
       name="The Movie Database Scraper Library"
       version="2.14.0"
       provider-name="Team Kodi">

CHOP! CHOP!

and in /home/LOGINNAME/.kodi/addons/metadata.common.themoviedb.org/addon.xml i see version 2.16.0 :

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<addon id="metadata.common.themoviedb.org"
       name="The Movie Database Scraper Library"
       version="2.16.0"
       provider-name="Team Kodi">

CHOP! CHOP!

So I replaced the folder containing version 2.14.0 with the folder containing v2.16.0 and fired up Kodi.
But alas, no change. And again no library update.

What else can I do/try ?
