In upgrade41.html, we introduced a "warning" section about packages
with unusually traumatic upgrades. In the 4.0 -> 4.1 upgrade,
(and I recall something about this again for 4.3 -> 4.4) postgresql
required a database dump before the upgrade and a restore
afterwards, if one neglected to do this, they would be hurting
after installing the new version.
It's upgrade44.html time again, and I need to know if there are any
packages worthy of a upgrade warnings for 4.3 -> 4.4
The criteria I would like to use is this:
1) The upgrade is more traumatic than typical (for example,
requiring PRE-upgrade actions)
2) the package is in moderately wide-spread use.
For 4.0->4.1, the postgresql advisory was this:
* Postgresql: you must dump your database before upgrade and restore it after.
nice, neat, one-line.
Please submit any suggestions for these to me. Providing the nice,
neat, one-line summary would be great (I'm NOT good at nice, neat, OR
one-line!), and if you feel it needed, justify it to me. :)
Nick.
