and occasionally the database format changes in a way that is
not backwards compatible. If you have data that you want to
move from older to newer versions, you can do the following:
-- start up older version of gnucash, open your postgres://...
URL.
-- 'save as' to an ordinary gnucash file (its a flat XML file)
-- exit the program.
-- start the newer version of gnucash, open the XML file.
-- 'save as' a new postgres database. (be sure to pick a new name).
