I support using foom's /usr/local compiled SVN 1.4 on wolfwood as-is, and migrating to fsfs. I have used fsfs a bit here, and I'm confident that it will not lose data. If we migrate the SVN database, it might actually make a server-wide upgrade to a supported (recent) OS a little easier.
<br><br>I wouldn't recommend using a /usr/local compiled postgresql, however. If we switch to a pg backend for trac, I have a hunch things will go smoother if the server-wide upgrade is done first.<br><br>In my head the basic plan looks like:
<br><br>1- migrate to fsfs on a recent SVN. Watch for improvements in trac. If trac starts to behave, stop here.<br><br>2- upgrade wolfwood server. Watch for improvments in trac. Upgrade pyramid while you're in there. ;-) If trac improves, stop here.
<br><br>3- Migrate backend to pgsql. Watch for improvements in trac. If trac doesn't improve, migrate to something not-trac.<br><br>Yes, I am volunteering my time. I don't currently have any permissions on these servers apart from commits.
