The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

["Jean-Baptiste Denis" <address@concealed>]

Hello everybody,

i'm not in a very advanced state at the moment. Here is where i am  :

- database creation with create_Pg.sql script from the 6.0.3 source
- dumped the old database using pg_dump -Fp --data-only
- running some cleaning script on it. I've manually added the   
  'robot_subscriber' column in the subscriber table and added the '*' default
  value to it. it looks like that :

sympa=> select list_subscriber, user_subscriber, robot_subscriber from 
subscriber_table limit 1;
 list_subscriber |     user_subscriber      | robot_subscriber 
-----------------+--------------------------+------------------
 mylist          | myname@mydomain          | *

- i have imported cleaned version of user_table and subscriber_table in the
  new database without any warnings

- i have copied the content of the old sympa/expl folder in the new
  sympa/list_data folder.

- i have copied the content of the old sympa/arc folder in the new
  sympa/arc folder

I didn't have spotted anything in the NEWS file to reach the 4.2b.1, maybe it 
wasn't obvious to me.

- i've changed data_structure.version to 4.2b.1 and ran sympa.pl --upgrade. 
Here is the output :

Before looking precisely at Dan Pritts script, i come here to ask for any 
advices, again.

Thank you.
