Hi,

For those tracking HEAD, please note that I've pushed a patch
requiring a new dependency on IPC::Cmd.  As this module is used by the
web installer, the database update script will not work until you've
installed the dependency.

IPC::Cmd is one of several modules on CPAN that support easily
executing a program and capturing its return status, standard error,
and standard output.  It is a core module in Perl 5.10, meaning that
users of that version of Perl already have it, but will need to be
added by users of 5.8, typically by running

$ sudo cpan IPC::Cmd

I've filed a request to have this module packaged on Debian for Perl 5.8 users.

Regards,

Galen
