Typo is broken, but I fixed Firefox

So, I upgraded Typo a few days ago, and just noticed today that all my links are broken because my relative_url_root is busted. I wonder what caused that. Anyway, on a better note, I fixed Firefox to open all new windows in new tabs instead. So much better. Here’s the fix:


browser.link.open newwindow.restriction = 0
browser.link.open newwindow = 3

Now, all the calls even from javascript will divert into the ***newwindow*** setting, which opens new tabs for everything. YAY! This info was stolen from [here](http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.link.open_newwindow.restriction) ###Update Well, I contacted the #typo channel on freenode, and here’s the answer I got:

[11:39am|sprewell> hardwarehank, you should not be on trunk
[11:39am|sprewell> go back to 1230

So, here’s the solution I came to after screwing up a few times:

Move all your custom plugins (if any) from components/plugins to somewhere safe
Delete the components/plugins directory
rake migrate VERSION=50
svn up -r 1230
If it complains about not being able to create directories, just blow away those directories too after you back up anything custom.
Move things back in place
mongrel_rails restart
