Notes:

• The database is updated after install if found. This may take several seconds depending on how big the database is. Trying to go backwards to 0.6.2 with an updated database may result in crash. If you have spent considerable effort creating your config, I suggest backing up the kat5200.db3 file just in case.
• Sound under Linux with ALSA is not good with SDL. Install PulseAudio and set the appropiate SDL environment variable (SDL_AUDIODRIVER=pulseaudio).
• Windows users need to install the Visual C++ 2015 redistributable (x86 version). Get here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48145
