I agree. Last time I upgraded my jqt binaries I ended up manually
installing them because I couldn't seem to get them to overwrite the
existing ones. I have my Windows j8 install in c:\Program
Files\j64-801, and my Linux one in /opt/j64-801. Both need admin
permissions to write to, which may complicate things.

I can't be absolutely certain I didn't make a stupid error though so
I'll test it out with more care tonight (I see that there are new
binaries available!)
