[hyperkitty-devel] Setting up Kittystore database impossible

I am trying to set up the Kittystore database as describe in the docs 
with the following command:

     kittystore-updatedb -p . -s settings -d

The problem is that this runs the migrations without ever initializing 
the database, so it fails:

     sqlalchemy.exc.OperationalError: (OperationalError) no such table: 
patch u'\nDROP TABLE patch' ()

(Even when I create the table patch manually with sqlite3, it will fail 
on the next migration, as it expects a lot of Tables which have never 
been created)
