  LOCAL INSTALLATION
  ==================

Simple instruction: switch to 'sql' (see the README.sqldb file).

The 'local' data access system was removed since IMDbPY 4.2, for
a series of good reasons:
- the moviedb program was no more distributed by IMDb.
- the new format for movie titles ("The Title" instead of "Title, The")
  created way too many problems almost impossible to fix, since a lot
  of damage was done by the - never updated - moviedb program.
- it was slower and less complete than 'sql'.
- there were very few users of it.


If you are veeery willing to resuscitate it, you can write in
the mailing list about your crazy idea. :-)
