Thanks a bunch, will do that and report back.

I just had a look at the notifications in my Google dev account and it reads:
...
If you want to publish any further updates of your app you need
to recompile it to support the 16 KB requirement. until november 1st.
...
So we probably intend to create an update at some point, I think I have to
update our app. Not?
