<h3><a name="v2.1.x-dbedit">UPGRADING FROM v2.1.x OR EARLIER: Database Format Change</a></h3>
! <p>If you have archives created with v2.1.x, or earlier, you
! must update the archives before using versions v2.2, or
! later. The format of how mime-related information is stored
! has changed.
! </p>
! <p>To update your archives, you use the <tt>mha-dbedit</tt> program
! using the <tt>def-mime.mrc</tt> in the examples directory. For example:
! </p>
! <pre>
! mha-dbedit -rcfile examples/def-mime.mrc \
! -outdir /path/to/archive </pre>
! <p>Make sure that the mhonarc you are using is v2.2, or later.
! Change the <a href="resources/rcfile.html">-rcfile</a>
! and <a href="resources/outdir.html">-outdir</a> pathnames to reflect where
! you are running mhonarc and where your archive is located,
! respectively.
! </p>
! <p>Note, if your archives are using custom settings of
! <a href="resources/mimefilters.html">MIMEFILTERS</a>,
! <a href="resources/mimeargs.html">MIMEARGS</a>, and/or
<a href="resources/charsetconverters.html">CHARSETCONVERTERS</a>
! resources,
! you will need to create a variant version of def-mime.mrc
! (included in the examples directory) to include your settings
! and use the variant version when updating your archives.

<h3><a name="v2.1.x-dbedit">UPGRADING FROM v2.1.x OR EARLIER: Database Format Change</a></h3>
! <p>If you have archives created with v2.1.x, or earlier, the
! format of mime-related resources is not compatible with v2.2, and
! later, versions. MHonArc will reset the mime-related resources
<a href="resources/charsetconverters.html">CHARSETCONVERTERS</a>
! and <a href="resources/mimefilters.html">MIMEFILTERS</a> to their
! default values.
! <a href="resources/mimeargs.html">MIMEARGS</a> will also be
! reset to the default value unless you are upgrading to v2.5.8, or
! later, where the MIMEARGS settings will be preserved.
! </p>
! <p>To avoid the resetting of the mime-related resource if you
! are using customized settings, you will need to re-specify your
! settings the next time you update an archive. If you always
! specify your resource settings each time you invoke MHonArc, then
! your settings should to still take effect.
! </p>
! <p>You can also use the
! <a href="app-utilsprg.html#mha-dbedit"><tt>mha-dbedit</tt></a>
! program to apply
! your settings directly without processing the archive.
