Look at the make install of any makefile. It usually has a cp -f
statement. This will over write your previous installation (if you are installing in
the same place).
You just have to remember where which package was installed.
If a consistent policy is followed, this should not be tough.
For example, I install packages compiled from source in /usr/local/packagename (or in
/usr/local/bin, config in /usr/local/etc). So if a package is in /usr/local/bin, the
config will be in /usr/local/etc. If it is in /usr/local/packagename, everything wrt
that package will be under that directory.
(Just that /usr/local/packagename usually creates problems with overly long paths).
