[Koha-devel] Major surprise - "automatic" upgrade

cleanup_database.pl will not tell you to..

Major surprise? This seems to be impossible.
cleanup_database.pl is a commandline script that gets a db handle from Context.pm but this works without a version check. It apparently only checks existence of system preferences. Maybe it should check more..

If you increase or decrease the Koha version in the codebase, you can still run cleanup_database. Please try. Tested this on master and 3.8.X by editing kohaversion.pl.

Your "automatic" upgrade really is a mystery :)
