 as long as you have your database up to date with the change log before you migrate the new peq sqls you should be find by starting mysql and sourcing drop_system.sql and following it up with load_system.sql.  This will drop everything NOT character related.  and then load the latest peq snapshot.  This is how I do it about once a week or so.
