Did you change it to use 3.1+?   I will change to that.

I had to do that also on another system. I will do that for now.

Any ticket for that? (I don't think I saw this issue yet.)

Another problem is the auto detection of old database at build/install 
time.  On sytems where users build from ports, they will notice; but on 
systems that they use a package that was generated from ports, they will 
not.

I started writing the rc.d script for this.  I will complete it.  The 
reason why it is not done yet was (and still is) that we have some 
output that is not logged yet.

Thanks a lot for looking at the port.
