Does that work, I tried re-creating the zip with the proper name and it kept telling me I did not have the correct structure to install. I have been manually adding it to the ~/.xbmc/addons folder using SSH and Samaba (copying it to Downloads and then a cp -fr).
Setup:
HTPC: Acer Revo 3610 (openELEC 3.0.2) with Aeon Nox (4)
NAS: unRAID 5rc12a on an Intel 3GHz Core2Duo with 4GB of RAM and 5 2TB WD EARS Green Drives
Running: SickBeard, CouchPotato v2, Headphones, Maraschino, Plex and SimplePlugins

Github.com screwed around with the zip files.
You need to rezip it yourself locally

I had been able to do it before, it is good to know that addon.xml has to be at the root, I may have to look into that at some point. Much less work than all of the listed steps. Haha

It runs fine. Problem is one script is missing in frodo that prevents it from installing. What you could do is edit the addon.xml inside the .zip and remove the line that contains script.randomandlastitems
This should allow it to install using .zip

Im having the same problem, if i download the zip file from GIT it says "dependencies not met".
But if i open the zipfile in 7-zip and edit the addon.xml inside 7-zip, and save it, i get "addons does not have correct structure"
I have rezipped the contents both with everything directly in the root, and as it was when first downloading it.
How is the zip-file supposed to be structured?

Same problem for me too.
After I edit the zip file I get the wrong structure error.
Tried different methods, and all have the same result.
