Description Jan Hutař 2011-06-02 14:13:45 UTC 
Description of problem:
I'm upgrading 5.4.0 with embedded DB and in point-release-update.txt document I have been told in step 2 to upgrade packages and in step 3 to create a backup of my database.

In my opinion, I should have been told to create backup of DB before packages upgrade for cases when something goes wrong with packages upgrade.
