To clarify on the "wipes out the config" comment: After installing 2.1.0, the UI config pane is completely blank. Looking at the json, the old config is (mostly) still there, but somehow 2.1.0 is ignoring all of it. May have something to do with the "no plugin found" error, since the names don't match up?

+1, also experiencing this following an upgrade to 2.1.0.

The only way to downgrade is to uninstall the plugin, completely restart the host OS (docker image or whatever), then install 1.5.3, then massage the homebridge JSON to get everything in the correct spot for the old version (remove any Roomba entries from the "platforms" section, be sure it's all in the top "accessories" section). Which I'm doing, because 1.5.3 is the last version that can find a Roomba that isn't on the default subnet (see #167).
