Fair enough, simple is good for me :-)
If errors or logging occur inside zodbpack, where do they go?

Yes.

Not sure.

Okay, some more info...
I re-converted the .fs file for this storage.
This time, I've taken a mysqldump backup.
I then packed, and *then* started the batch process: no problems.
While the batch was running, I tried packing again but the pack finished
without any problems.
Okay, so next up I restored the backup.
This time I set the batch running and *then* started the pack.
This eventually caused the POSKeyErrors to begin again.
I'm going to have a go at knocking up a small batch script that you can
run to reproduce the issue, but there's definitely an issue here when
packing while changing lots of data in a ZODB.
cheers,
Chris
