If you need me to, I will send you a copy of the 1.0.0p1 tarball.
However, your data is messed up :-(  Badly... :-(

Not good....  Can you tell what sort of transactions these are
supposed to be?  We could delete these rows and then upgrade, but I
get nervous about deleting even corrupted accounting information.

Ouch....  Seems these "transactions" are being connected to chart of
accounts entries.  I.e. you have entries in your chart of accounts
that LSMB thinks are also financial transactions.  Not good.

For the moment, to get you up and running, here is what I would recommend:

SELECT * INTO acc_trans_bad FROM acc_trans WHERE trans_id IN (select
trans_id FROM acc_trans WHERE chart_id = 10030);
DELETE FROM acc_trans WHERE trans_id IN (select trans_id FROM
acc_trans WHERE chart_id = 10030);

This will move corrupt financial data from the acc_trans table to an
acc_trans_bad table.  Note that it is possible that you may need to
run parts of the upgrade script by hand starting with the command that
failed.  You can use psql and any good text editor for this if you
like.

Best Wishes,
Chris Travers
