Hi,

There is already an up to date laconica_pg.sql, but it is not in the
main Laconica source repository yet. However, in addition to updating
the creation script, there are a number of changes to queries in the
Laconica code itself that are required to make all the new features
work properly.

If you urgently need your installation up and running, I can supply
these, but otherwise it is probably best to wait until they have
been pulled into the main Laconica repository.

Thanks,

Ciaran
