In short: Don't do it.

I've wasted half of yesterday and much of today getting my Late 2008 MacBook Pro back into shape after installing the 10.7.5 update.

Worst of all: My fink installation won't update, which means re-installing XCode and then re-installing the command line tools, which is so slow that I have time to write this.

My MBP booted 10.7.5 once, and then thereafter only gave a kernel panic on boot. I had to re-install 10.7, and then download the 10.7.4 combo update and install that.

There's been a long-standing issue in the Examples Project, as to whether an implementation of Node API should delete it's content on uninstall.

This is related to other issues about whether modules that implement fields should delete their data from the DB on uninstall. It took a while, but finally Drupal core will prevent you from uninstalling a module that provides a field (or, IIRC, a formatter), so yay, cross that one off the list.

Pushed a commit to Examples. This one.

Kinda wish Entity Reference would bump up to a new RC at least... http://drupal.org/node/1672618

People keep posting 'me-too!' on this queue, and probably others as well: http://drupal.org/node/1608358

Please forgive me, anyone-who-is-paying-attention-to-this-site. :-)

I promise to have more to say here.

Really. Because I promised myself I'd try and do a Drupal issue a day, addressing something on my dashboard, probably from the Examples Project but also maybe in Core or any of the other modules I use.

So when I do one of those, I'll write about it here. Ideally.

Stay tuned.

This site has been upgraded to Drupal 7.

The notable pain points were:

A 'misfenestration' is the act of typing into one chat window when you meant to type into a different one.

For contrast, see 'defenestration.'

By posting this 'blog entry, I now own the search results for this word. :-)

The last update to this web site was a year and a half ago, which makes me wonder what I've been up to.

Update to Drupal 5.1 complete. We hope.

Some modules I use aren't available for v.5, so let's see how it goes. I might shift back to 4.7.6.

More update.... It took some doing to get the image toolkit working. After installing the image module, trying to change that setting would show me that there were no toolkits avaialble, so drupal would use it's built-in GD. Of course that didn't actually happen; no toolkit was used, so trying to upload an image resulted in no thumbnails.
