wget https:/
sh migrate.sh deps
sh migrate.sh install6
worked fine on Ubuntu 12.04 through 14.10, but as of Ubuntu 15.04, it fails quickly with

Table "drupal6.variable" doesn"t exist [warning]
query: SELECT value FROM variable WHERE name =
"install_task" database.

The site install task '' failed. [error]
It's not doing much more than:

+ tar -xf drupal-6.35.tar.gz
+ cd drupal-6.35
+ drush si default ...
and it's that last command that fails. Between Ubuntu 14.10 and 15.04, php was updated
from 5.5.12+
need updating to work with php 5.6.
