I was not talking about removing the code (right now). But that we don't need to run it again for upgrading from (hypothetical) 3.1.3-11 to 3.1.3-13. It of course will be run when upgrading from 3.0.8-15 to 3.1.3-12. And it will be run on initial install, too, since other providers can be involved. Andreas
