If I want to upgrade the lksctp-tools to new version 1.0.16, do I need to remove the old one first prior to install the new version or installing the new version will automatically uninstall the old one? > Here are the steps that currently being used to install 1.0.14: > cd lksctp-tools-1.0.14 >/dev/null 2>&1 ./bootstrap >/dev/null 2>&1 > ./configure --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib64 >/dev/null 2>&1 make > >/dev/null 2>&1 make install >/dev/null 2>&1 You can/should considering backporting a rpm from a newer Fedora. It makes this handling much easier. Removing is not really necessary, but helps to keep your system in a saner state. > 3. Similar to upgrade question above, what are the steps required to follow for downgrade procedures move from 1.0.16 to 1.0.14? We need to downgrade the version of lksctp-tools to match with rest of the downgraded software on the system. You may just reinstall it over what is currently installed, being it 1.0.14 or 1.0.16. Same deal as above regarding cleaning the previous one.
