Hey,

I want to upgrade to the newer version as well, but I installed the
original from source.  I installed from source because some of the
goodies where only available from source instead of rpm.  If I install
the newer rpms will I have to uninstall the old versions from source?  I
really don't know what is the best way to proceed.  I would like to go
to rpms, but should I bother?  They just seem easier to manage.

Thanks.....hope I was clear.

Later
