Hey Gabriel, The first thing before doing anything at all is to backup your binaries and configuration files. Then try to plan a way that will allow you to fall back to the older version if anything will turn bad. If you can test on a VM the installation process before production it would be the best way to make sure everything will go smooth and as expected. I believe that you will be able to just override the current squid installation if it will build fine. Just make sure that the squid instance/service is not running while you are installing the new version. If you have more specific questions feel free to ask.

Hello everyone. I have currently installed SQUID 5.8 compiled from source on Debian 10.5. I want to upgrade to the latest stable version, 6.2. What is the recommended way to upgrade to a new version? Should I uninstall the old version first? Or do I compile the new one and it overwrites the old one?
Thank you very much for any help you can give me. My configuration: ./configure --includedir=/include \ --mandir=/share/man \ --infodir=/share/info \ --localstatedir=/opt/squid/var \ --disable-maintainer-mode \ --disable-dependency-tracking \ --disable-silent-rules \ --enable-inline \ --enable-async-io \ --enable-storeio=ufs,aufs,diskd \ --enable-removal-policies=lru,heap \ --enable-delay-pools \ --enable-cache-digests \ --enable-underscores \ --enable-icap-client \ --enable-follow-x-forwarded-for \ --enable-arp-acl \ --enable-esi--disable-translation \ --with-logdir=/var/log/squid \ --with-pidfile=/var/run/squid.pid \ --with-filedescriptors=65536 \ --with-large-files \ --with-default-user=proxy \ --enable-linux-netfilter \ --enable-ltdl-convenience \ --with-openssl \ --enable-ssl \ --enable-ssl-crtd \ --enable-snmp \ --disable-arch-native make make check make install -- Gabriel
