Many thanks to Arno and Kevin for thier
help.
I decided to save the current 2.4.4
environment and upgrade to 3.0.0. If it is necessary to modify the DB and
patch the code I think the risks are of the same kind as installing the
new rev, wich is in any case a production rev.
Too bad I have to use the tarball version,
the RPM version are not yet ready, even in source format.
Thanks again,
