If they insist on sourcing in a shell, the only one they can source is the "ax_classic_full" version. The update would work if they dropped all the tables they were updating with. Even the full won't work if there already is a full in the database.
My idea was to simplify things for people just starting out, and have them download MySql Administrator, use it's backup/restore features. If they don't use MySql Admin, then they are going to need the smarts to drop the tables first.
