As an aside...my upgrade went awry, but I was able to fix it by
reviewing the debug and removing the plugins/modules that affected the
errors on the debug. Ended up having a number of plugin/module issues
Gallery does NOT upgrade well, IMHO. I am happily running gallery 2.3 on
my 8.10 server now that I fixed the upgrade. I was previously running
2.2 on 8.04 so I know it works.

May want to post more detail.
