I just ran rake:rails:freeze:edge then ran script/about and it reports  
this:

alex-eggs-computer:~/sites/mms-service eggie5$ script/about

```
  * config.breakpoint_server has been deprecated and has no

```

effect. \*

About your application’s environment  
Ruby version 1.8.6 (i686-darwin8.10.1)  
RubyGems version 0.9.2  
Rails version 1.2.4

Why does it show rails 1.2.4?

Perhaps you need to run rake:rails:update as well?

alex-eggs-computer:~/sites/mms-service eggie5$ script/about
