The HAYSTACK_SITECONF setting is no longer used & can be removed

I'm using Haystack search (latest version) and Django 1.3.

The getting started docs say to have a HAYSTACK_SITECONF setting, but when I try to manage.py syncdb, I get the error The HAYSTACK_SITECONF setting is no longer used & can be removed.. Removing the setting then tells me that 开发者_运维问答The HAYSTACK_CONNECTIONS setting is needed, but that isn't in the docs at all.

Are the docs outdated or did I mess up my install?

Your link points to a 1.2.5 beta documentation while HAYSTACK_CONNECTIONS appears to be a v2.0 alpha setting.

If you're using the development version of software you should generally expect documentation to be lacking. I personally use the stable releases that won't change on me unless I absolutely need one of the newer features (like django 1.4's new filterspecs).
