Note for Dreamhackers and sites using Dreamwidth code

We've just checked in a code change that moves to a new data version. You can read instructions on how to update your database.

This change has been made to make icon renaming more efficient, so we can keep that feature.

Erm, perhaps I'm being thick, but I'm having trouble:

Hmm, looks like you are in the wrong place--try to cd $LJHOME first and run it from there?

If it doesn't exist there, make sure you sync the code and update the database first as described here.

I'm told by the experct that where you're running it is okay, but that you're running an older version of code and should try updating? If you haven't done it in a long time you might run into bumps, just let me know and we can work through them!

How old is old? They only got a 'hack last month IIRC.
