It depends on how you installed it in the first place. Did you compile it from source using the "./configure; make; make install" commands, or did you use some package manager (such as fink or MacPorts)? > I'm unclear on what happens to the existing version on my system.

But it's typically simply overwritten when *installing* the new version (e.g. via `make install`). ~Kyle - -- What has destroyed liberty and the rights of man in every government which has ever existed under the sun?
