Edit Font.xml for Estuary skin - LibreELEC 8 (7.95.3 BETA)

I'm trying to increase the font size of LibreELEC 8 (7.95.3 BETA) Estuary skin.
as it is in a read only folder i copied it to a new folder

Code

cp -r /usr/share/kodi/addons/skin.estuary /storage/.kodi/addons/skin.estuary.edit

and planed to edit the Font.xml of the new copy.

As a first step i edited it's addon.xml so it will have a different id and name. like this (changes highlighted in red)

Quote

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<addon id="skin.estuary.edit version="1.9.9" name="Estuary(Edit)"
provider-name="phil65, Ichabod Fletchman">

Then i restarted my LibreELEC and expected to see "Estuary(Edit)" on my available skin list
however it didn't appear there
anybody ave an idea why?

Try changing the version to a higher number like (version="2.0.0")
If it doesn't work download estuary from git and make the changes in the downloaded files then install the skin from the .zip file.

Changing the skin version didn't work
but pulling the skin from githab altering it and installing from ZIP worked perfectly
Thanks a lot
