[freeside-devel] domain_record.rectype

[ivan]

Hmm, in 1.4.x, it looks like "ChopBlanks" is defined in the DBI connect
call in UID.pm, but in 1.5.x (CVS HEAD) I have it commented out, which
triggers the bug you point out below.

I guess we should change the schema for domain_record.rectype to
varchar.
