Installetion Error about simpleinvoices HOT 3 CLOSED

I got this same error when installing the simpleinvoices.2011.1 version. I just cloned the repo from git and I get the same error..

Install goes fine and the error occurs upon updating the database...

SQL patch 3, Add a row into the defaults table to handle the default number of line items has not been applied to the database

from simpleinvoices.

In browsing the sql_patches.php file it seems there are a few patches that reference this table, then patch 185 says

$patch['185']['name'] = "Drop old defaults table";
$patch['185']['patch'] = "DROP TABLE `".TB_PREFIX."defaults` ;";
if ($config->database->adapter == "pdo_pgsql") {
    $patch['185']['patch'] = "DROP TABLE `".TB_PREFIX."defaults`  ;";
}
$patch['185']['date'] = "20081230";

from simpleinvoices.

so to overcome this, I dropped the database, recreated it, then ran the sql in the Full_Simple_Invoices.sql then went to the web installer...this got me up to patch 254 and the remainder was successfully applied when I clicked upgrade.
