Upgrade a very old kallithea that uses paster

Something my be wrong with the documentation. I tried to resolve the
problem by:

* checking out a brand new kallithea from the official repo

* going over the instalation at setup steps, except that "paster
setup-db my.ini" was replaced by "paster upgrade-db my.ini" (after the
old database was copied in)

* and it work!

But then, why do we have "gearbox" in the documentation and not "paster"?
