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.

Subject: How to upgrade correctly? 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 \
