Issues with freeside-upgrade

I had lots of issues while trying to run freeside-upgrade. The fix I finally made work was to run the script as follows

freeside-upgrade -d username > dbupdatefile

and then manually dump the dbupdatefile to psql

psql -f dbupdatefile

It would be helpful if you could document said "issues" here, or in the forum, or on the mailing list, rather than only documenting their existence and a workaround. That way someone encountering the same problem might provide a fix so that the script works as intended for you. FWIW, freeside-upgrade has worked for myself and others for many upgrades to date.
