We are just using upstream's script and his database. Due to our moving of files, the database seems to be invalid (I didn't analyse that, just believing what you're saying), but due to other clever things in the script, it still works. I see no reason in updating the database (because it already works), or in dropping it, or whatever. If you think the database can generally be dropped (or rather the path information in it), this should be discussed with upstream (Thomas Ruedas).
