yes, don't try to install with makecat.  tar up your old minivend
catalog and install it under your ic tree.  It will probably just
work, particularly if it is a minivend 3.12+.

There are a number of posts in the mailing list about issues you might
run into upgrading from minivend3 to 4.

Presumably if they want to upgrade, they have a reason and someone
is comfortable working out the details.  Or is it because you don't
like seeing what newer perl spews out when you start old mv?  :-)
