[Pdx-pm] Kwiki 2 error, more info

[Ingy dot Net]

OK I'm having a bad day. Well not that bad actually, but there's now one
more thing you need to do. Run these commands:

    svn up
    rm index.cgi
    kwiki -update

(each from the appropriate directories)

I had to patch Kwiki to rewrite index.cgi if it was missing. It all seems
groovy now.

Cheers, Ingy
