Topic: Upgrading Bitcoin From 0.5.1 to 0.5.2 (Read 1486 times)
Simple answer: Yes. You install 0.5.2 as an upgrade, just make sure you close Bitcoin first, and back up your wallet.dat in %appdata%\Bitcoin on windows, or ~/.bitcoin on linux.
Grue has a valid question, and your answer is both pointless and unhelpful.
Using Ubuntu is so easy... Just run:
aptitude update
aptitude upgrade
Or start "Update Manager GUI" interface and upgrade your system, a new Bitcoin will arrive.
Always backup your wallet.dat.
aptitude update
aptitude upgrade
Or start "Update Manager GUI" interface and upgrade your system, a new Bitcoin will arrive.
Always backup your wallet.dat.
I want to upgrade my Bitcoin client from 0.5.1 to 0.5.2. Do I need to uninstall 0.5.1 first or should I just install 0.5.2 on top of 0.5.1?
Whatever you do, be sure to backup your wallet file to a safe place.
