NikNaks is a library, it does nothing on its own!
Think of it like a hammer sitting in a toolbox. The hammer doesn't build or break anything until someone picks it up and swings it. If an addon that uses NikNaks breaks something, that's on the addon, not NikNaks. That said, if you do find a genuine bug or error in NikNaks itself, feel free to report it and I'll look into it.
