Can you start a thread on the LibreELEC forum? Unfortunately I can't verify that add-ons are not installing right now due to bogus dependencies but maybe someone else will be able to. This isn't really a problem specific to these test builds and should be reproducible with 8.90.005 etc.
I'm not sure if there are any immediate plans to address the issue in Kodi. If necessary LibreELEC 9 will have to hack a solution that will work for the add-ons we include in the LibreELEC builds, but that is a last resort.
Edit: I'm pretty certain that the "not available" warning for built-in add-ons (such as os.openelec.tv) does not prevent add-ons from being installed in LibreELEC, so if you're having problems it may be due to something else (network problems?) in which case start a new thread and post a debug log. Just make sure you are selecting "OK" when shown the dependency dialog. Obviously there will be times when dependencies really are not available, but that is not the case with the built-in add-ons (os.libreelec.tv, script.module.pycryptodome etc.).
