No, there is no bug here. For reliability reasons, the '+' is not honored when the major version number of XXE (v4) is different from the one specified in <a:xxeVersion> (v3). Therefore, you need to create two versions of your add-on, one having: <a:xxeVersion>3.7.0+</a:xxeVersion> and the other one having: <a:xxeVersion>4.0.0+</a:xxeVersion> Sorry for the inconvenience.
