that's one of the things i'm wondering about, like "did you uninstall it, or just unload it, or did you uninstall it but not unload it? did you build a new version in the test environment and test that against an existing install?" it's been days since i ran into this, and the only notes that i have on it are that i ran into it. i didn't keep track of the recipe.
