Hi Tom,
 thanks again, totally agree and came to the same conclusions overnight.
You warned me long ago about running a development version in workplace
environment. And Gediminas as soon as he saw the problem gave good
indications, including the difficulty to transfer between 2.6 and 2.7
versions.
I did build a clean 13.10 and clean schooltool on it a fortnight ago but
either stuffed up the Data.fs blobs import along the way, or something else.
Will retry and if that fails will start clean again but re-enter all the
demographic modifications by keyboard.
Is there a command to delete the current schooltool build on saucy?
Thanks again for your and GP's help.
Mark

Hi Mark,

The thing is that it is essentially impossible for us to remotely
support (for free) anything other than a released, packaged version of
SchoolTool running on a clean Ubuntu install. It seems to me that first
you need to get a clean (empty) SchoolTool 2.6 running on a clean Ubuntu
install, without fiddling with the packages at all, and then try to
switch to your pre-2.7 update database.
