Subject: ledgersmb: Unable to upgrade from 1.2 db to 1.3 db
Package: ledgersmb
Version: 1.3.15-2
Severity: important
All my databases are 1.2 databases. I'm following the update
instructions for 1.3, using the "setup.pl" page via my browser.
The updates fail with an apache 500 error -- the db is created but all
the tables are empty. Re-running the update process does _not_ repair
the db, as might be expected.
While many errors show up, the final pre-500 errors in Apache are:

These appear to be the fatal errors. A look upstream shows that there's
a report of this error:
http://www.mail-archive.com/ledger-smb-users@lists.sourceforge.net/msg05917.html
but I haven't been able to determine if this problem was ever solved.
Estimated taxes are due in about 10 days. I'm getting ready to panic. Is
it possible to, at least in the meantime, downgrade to 1.2.x until this
issue is resolved? Otherwise I'll end up with 1.3.17 or 1.2.x installed
from the site directly, or some similar fix.
