Description

Hi there,

This is really exactly the same issue as #372, but since @dimitre asked to open a new one in case I had problems with addons again, here I am :)

When importing the project with the projectGenerator (nightly 20241016) the local addons are detected. There is no "../" in path to the addons, so not sure how this relates to #562:

However, in the importing process the local addons are ignored and deleted from addons.make:

screenshot 2 - after import

Many thanks!

Luis.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the import with the macOS projectGenerator nightly 20241016 and inspect how local addons are handled. Compare the detected addon paths with the resulting addons.make shown in the screenshots. Done means local addons remain listed in addons.make after project import.
