Thanks for these tips guys. |

So, do you think the safest route is to do a full sql dump of my 4.0 dbs/tables, unmerge |
4 |
4.0, emerge 4.1, and then load the dump file? That seems pretty scary to me, but the docs |
5 |
sound like that's the prefered route due to the character encoding changes. |

Which approach did you use Jason? Has anyone just unamsked 4.1, installed it over a full, |
8 |
active 4.0 setup, done revdep-rebuild and had it all go fine? What problems have people had? |
9 |
|
10 |
Also, anyone heard of any problems with 4.1 and PHP stuff like horde or pear? |

thanks, |
