Richard Levitte - VMS Whacker, and lo! it spake thus:
 
 If you have any question, please ask and I'll help you as much as I
 can.

I took this as an opportunity to try this again; I've had horrible
luck getting monotone to work at all, finally tracked down to
b0rkedness in the boost libraries.  The problem now, I find, is that
the database somehow seems to still want to use repository.lp.se as
the server to connect to when I do a `mtn pull` from the working dir.
Since I know I didn't do the initial pull from there, I presume it's
inheriting that info somehow, but I'm not sure how to change it.  The
online help and manpage don't seem to give me any hints...

richard I'm asking you to put it aside and start with a completely

It dawned on me that I haven't explained why.  The following section
in the manual should explain it well enough (if you consider that db
rosterify is like another db rebuild):

Upgrade done.

For those following the development on the notification mailing lists,
it will have to wait a couple of days.

You will now need to do the following:

 - if you have any local changes, get a diff
 - put aside your current database (keep it as a backup for a few
   days)
 - put aside your current work directories

 - upgrade monotone to version 0.26

 - do a fresh pull from the new server:

mtn --db=/PATH/TO/ctwm.mtn db init
mtn --db=/PATH/TO/ctwm.mtn pull guardian.lp.se 'free.lp.se:X.ctwm*'

 - check out fresh work directories
 - apply any diff that you saved previously.

If you have any question, please ask and I'll help you as much as I
can.

Cheers,
Richard
