I'm manually installing boostbook.zip and addon I created some time ago

I'm working with MacOS. I unzipped boosbook.zip and pasted into the
XMLmind application bundle according to the instructions at
http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/addons.shtml#manual_install
After clearing the cache and restarting the program, I'm rewarded with a
dialog box which contains the following message:
*file:/Applications/XMLEditor.app/Contents/Resources/xxe/addon/boostbook/boostbook.xxe*
* cannot load configuration file
"/Applications/XMLEditor.app/Contents/Resources/xxe/addon/boostbook/boostbook.xxe":
/Applications/XMLEditor.app/Contents/Resources/xxe/addon/config/docbook/docbook_support.incl
(No such file or directory)
Indeed. The docbook.incl file is missing in the new installation.
What can I do to make this work.
You created your add-on more than two years ago. You cannot expect
XMLmind XML Editor to remain stable as a "platform" during two years.
You now need to review the implementation of your add-on and "port" it
to the latest XMLmind XML Editor "platform".
For example, in boostbook.xxe, please replace:
<include location="xxe-config:docbook/docbook_support.incl" />
by:
<include location="docbook-config:docbook.xxe" />
The fact that docbook_support.incl has been suppressed implies that we
no longer recommend using DocBook 4 as a base for creating custom
configurations such as "Boost Book". On the other hand, you'll still
find a "docbook5-config:docbook5_support.incl".
Other example, in boostbook.xxe, please replace:
<help location="xxe-config:docbook/docbook_help.jar" />
by:
<help name="docbook_help" />
See http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/configure/help.html
(The two above changes seem to be sufficient to make you add-on work in
v6.5.)
Yet another example, in boostbook.xxe, please add:
<!-- Discard DocBook templates -->
<template name="Book" />
<template name="Article" />
<template name="Part" />
<template name="Chapter" />
<template name="Refentry" />
<template name="Appendix" />
<template name="Glossary" />
<template name="Section" />
See http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/configure/template.html
BTW - I'm motivated to do this upgrade because my XMLmind seems to have
a problem since I "upgraded" to El Capitan. When I edit text in the
wysiwyg view, the characters are corrupted until I resize the window at
which point they are redrawn correctly. It's exceedingly annoying
Once again, you cannot expect old versions of XMLmind XML Editor to run
flawlessly on the latest version of an operating system.
Only latest release, version 6.5, has been tested on "El Capitan" and as
such, is guaranteed to work fine on this operating system.
