non-metakit db support is not supported at present, though it is partially implemented, so I'm closing all related bugs.

This particular bug is just a typo I can fix in a snap (change gglobals to gourmet.gglobals), but I believe once you successfully get the chooser working, you'll find all the non-metakit backends aren't currently functional :) These are experimental and were working when I first wrote them but haven't been maintained (I found they didn't have any clear advantage so I let them slip off my todo list). Given gourmet's performance problems with a large DB, though, it's likely this will crawl it's way back to the top of the TODO list again sometime in the future and I'll fix this up. Of course, if someone else wanted to take it on...
