Hello Bernard, 
thanks again for taking a look at this annoying issue!

No, that certainly is not the issue. I am testing in ownCloud-5.0.3. As 
sketched before I perfectly understand that ownCloud blocks apps from being 
able to be used in more than a single ownCloud version (whyever). 

I just rechecked and came to the same result: 
installing the "imprint" app in ownCloud 5.0.3 right from apps.owncloud.com is 
not possible. It results in the unfamous error message "This app is not 
compatible with ..."

Might it be that you only tested the activation of already installed apps 
instead of testing to install an app from apps.owncloud.com?
