Install LTS Version

To install a precise version install it manually: Releases.

But I recommend you to use git submodule:

# renpy-utility-lib
git submodule add -b python-lib -- https://github.com/DRincs-Productions/renpy-utility-lib 'pythonpackages/renpy_utility'
git submodule add -b renpy-lib -- https://github.com/DRincs-Productions/renpy-utility-lib 'game/renpy_utility_tool'
# renpy-utility-lib
git submodule add -b main -- https://github.com/DRincs-Productions/renpy-screens-style 'game/screens_style'
# NQTR-System
git submodule add -b python-lib -- https://github.com/DRincs-Productions/NQTR-System 'pythonpackages/nqtr'
git submodule add -b renpy-lib -- https://github.com/DRincs-Productions/NQTR-System 'game/nqtr_tool'
git submodule add -b screens -- https://github.com/DRincs-Productions/NQTR-System 'game/nqtr_screens'
git submodule add -b interface-images -- https://github.com/DRincs-Productions/NQTR-System 'game/nqtr_interface'

AND create a empty file __init__.py into pythonpackages/ so pythonpackages/__init__.py.

add after_load into core.rpy for update values after game update:

label after_load:
    # ...

    # renpy-utility-lib
    call update_current_flags(update_dictionary = True)

    # nqtr
    python:
        # timeHandler update: if you update TimeHandler settings into a new version, you can use this function to update the old save files.
        updateTimeHandler(tm)
        # clear the expired actions and routine
        from pythonpackages.nqtr.action import clear_expired_actions
        from pythonpackages.nqtr.routine import clear_expired_routine
        clear_expired_actions(actions, tm.day)
        clear_expired_routine(routine, tm)
        # recheck the character's events and commitments in current location
        from pythonpackages.nqtr.routine import characters_events_in_current_location
        from pythonpackages.nqtr.routine import characters_commitment_in_current_location
        cur_events_location = characters_events_in_current_location(cur_location.id, routine, tm, flags)
        commitments_in_cur_location = characters_commitment_in_current_location(cur_location.id, routine | df_routine, tm, flags)
        # update the quest levels, if ypu add a new stage in the quest, you can use this function to start the new stage
        update_quests_levels()
    return

Update new version
