I think it's still in a develop-debugging phase, where it creates a file with the features that need to be updated in a *local* file, which has a const name. Beside the fact that this is a big security issue, it just makes no sense to have the install routine create sucha file in the source directory of the package. I assume this method should do somthing else. I still need to figure, _what_. If it does, what the name implies, the actual code doesn't make any sense to me (what should the database want with a locally created file?). We'll probably find out once people are actually beginning to use it ;-), and then I'll be able to implement it. For now, add a big XXX comment and at least #if 0 the creation of this odd file - everything still works, so I really don't know what this was for.
