config_dbms_version doesn't get updated automatically (fix completed in vcs)

With phpBB 3.0.6-RC4, phpbb_config/config_dbms_version which is used on the "Send statistical information" page in the ACP, doesn't get updated automatically after a database upgrade on the server. At lest I couldn't find a way to update it automatically, to clear the phpBB cache doesn't help.

I assume that value should update automatically with each database upgrade.

How should phpBB detect a database update... this value should always reflect the database version phpBB got installed/updated with. ;)

Within the updater phpBB checks this value to make sure the schema is valid and in case of incompatibilities notifies the admin of required actions.

If we would update it constantly an admin (and phpBB) would never know if the schema is correct, then this variable could be removed.

If you want to check your schema and update the value you would need to run install/database_update.php once

Because this is about the statistical information i will see if we can change it to use the direct method instead of the config value.

Ah yes, I see. I didn't run install/database_update.php after the database upgrade and just thought about the statistics email, that it should contain current info.

Thank you for the explanation! :)
