Thanks, Ryan. I'll double check the Autopackage site, because I thought
the FAQ mentioned *not* having to remove old installations.

Am I right that, normally, Linux takes care of previous installations on
its own when upgrading packages?

package manager (such as yum in Fedora Core/Extras) and do not use the
autopackage, there is no need to uninstall to update.
