Hi there,

BTW, did anybody look into that berkeleydb removal code, regarding its 
ability to migrate from existing user profiles (as berkeleydb files are 
used in the user profile to keep track of installed extensions)?

        Not yet - re-basing desktop/ is coming up. IIRC there was a completely
pitiful amount of data in each berkeleydb file; so potentially we'd want
people to re-register their extensions [ hence nice to have a major
version bump to explain that ]. Or, possibly that data is mirrored in
some other file; I've not looked into it yet. Finally - possibly, in
extremis, we could run the moral equivalent of 'strings' on the file and
suck the data out without the backend ;->

        HTH,

                Michael.
