For some reason, the bakefile website identifies this process for generating rpms (http://www.bakefile.org/download.html):

	Binary RPM packages are not provided. 
	You can easily build them yourself by running the following
	command: rpmbuild -ta bakefile-0.2.2.tar.gz 

Installing building binaries from bakefile-0.2.2.tar.gz did work well.

I did not find mention in "8. Incompatible Library Changes" that the Query::success method had been obsoleted in favor of operator bool ().

When using the patched version of mysql++, I was writing

	row["assigned_staff_nid"].get_null<int,mysqlpp::NullisNull>()

Am I correct that with the svn version this becomes simply

	row["assigned_staff_nid"]

and that this returns a mysqlpp::Null< Type, Behavior >::Null ?
