Hi folks,

I've updated/fixed the installer :
Now the database Version (defined in version systempreference) is 
compared to the Koha version (defined by <kohaversion>XXX</kohaversion> 
in koha.xml file).

If the Version systempref does not exist or is lower than kohaversion, 
you're redirected to installer.

If there is no Version, you're redirected to the 1st step of the 
installer (full install).
If Version < kohaversion, you're redirected to step 3 (updatedatabase).

With this new feature, when installing a new version [1], you'll 
automatically be redirected to the step 3 of the installer to run 
updatedatabase.

WARNING : check that you have <kohaversion> in you koha.xml, otherwise, 
you'l loop forever to the installer...

HTH

[1] once the tech installer/updater will be written and if it updates 
correctly the kohaversion, which is, now something that it will have to do !
