While trying to upgrade from Links Module 5.x-1.8 to 6.x-1.0-beta11, I first got error stating :

Undefined function call _system_update_utf8() in links.install

After searching over drupal.org, I found that the same problem is being faced by many others and the reason could be that this function was removed from Drupal 5/6. Some threads also recommended commenting out this function call from the .install file.

So I commented out this function call from links_update_6101, but then i got another error stating :

Undefined function call links_parse_url();

Both of these are fatal errors and therefore, i am unable to move from version 5.x to 6. Would appreciate if someone can help me out here :)

Thanks in Advance,

Same here
Looks like the function links_parse_url is in links.inc, but the file doesn't get loaded.
