yoast causing havoc displaying all posts list

Hello to all Yoast-developers!

HINT:
The page I need help with:
Not available (… because Yoast is disabled since a week because of the error!)

Since about a week we are having serious problems with our website everytimes we are trying to activate the yoast-plugin.

The main problem is the missing display of the All-Posts list logged in as a User with editor-role.
Firstly an “server error”-message was displayed beyond the usual header-items of the list.
Trying to activate the yoast-plugin (after waiting about a week) today again (… in hope of self-healing abilities over time 😉 we’re getting a hint to switch on WP-debugging.

Doing so, i.e. enabling WP-debugging, a massive log-file was created:
About 5 GByte! … in only a few minutes, when trying to display the All-Posts-list.

Main problem of the plugin seems to be trying to access the column “version” of the
#NON-EXISTING table twli_wp4_wp_yoast_indexable

Now we’re very surprised:

How the yoast-plugin can try to use a non-existent table!
or – not much better –
How the yoast-plugin is getting lost of an entire (self owned ?!) table!

All this also happened on a productive iunstance ;-((

So we are finally having this questions:

* Are we the only website watching this problems?
* Is there a known procedure to “heal” this issue?
* Should we better consider to find an alternative plugin?

Kind regards,
also in hope of getting some enlightening about this uncomfortable issue
