nosilver4u on "[Plugin: EWWW Image Optimizer] Old database schema causing errors after upgrade"

We recently updated our ewww image optimizer plugin a few months ago. Since then, we've noticed errors in the database when images were being processed.

WordPress database error Unknown column 'updated' in 'field list' for query INSERT INTO 'wp_ewwwio_images'

Upon looking at the table, the updated, updates, and trace columns are not there. I looked through the plugin and I can find only a create statement concerning this table. If the database schema was changed from an older version, why was there not a clear upgrade path to the new schema by using alter table?

Is there any way to avoid doing this database change manually, perhaps something I'm missing concerning altering this table?
