It is safer to remove (or move to a backup place) the old installation
before you install the new one.

This is *ALWAYS* the case -- thus, there is no need to explicitely
document it.

Installation over an existing installation *MAY* work -- but
of course, nobody tests for it (because whether or not it works
may depend on the precise version that is already installed).
Therefore, chances are high that is does not work.


*If* you want to take shortcuts, then you are on your own....
Thus, go for the safer option....
