Let me see if I understand this.  Is this the order of steps you're recommending?

0. install Debian 10 on new server
1. apt-get install koha-common
2. copy database from the old server (mysqldump args >dump.sql)
   and load it on new server (mysql args <dump.sql).
3. run updatedatabase.pl
4. run Koha's web installer

I worry about step 3 because I don't understand how updatedatabase.pl
knows how to access the old database.  In the 3.16 installation I'm
working on, the database is called "koha", but in the latest Koha, the
database is normally called "koha_INSTANCE".  Is this a problem, and if so,
what do I do about?
