Re: [racket-users] Is this a good uninstall then install Racket plan...
All I really need to do is click [Check Syntax] button in DrRacket and all the modules/files in the program recompile. So there really is no problem. Took me a while to realize this. I would still like confirmation that it should be okay for me to clean up by removing all versions of Racket that are no longer current (by: raco pkg remove ...) And I would still like to know that if I don't remove previously installed versions of Racket, that I can switch between them. How does one make a previously installed version - current. (I might choose to keep them installed if it is possible to ocassionally make use of them. If it is not possible to make any of them current, then there is no point in keeping them on my system.) Thanks. Don.

What if he has directories that aren’t part of an installed package? That was my concern, and why I suggested manually deleting compiled subdirs.

Re: [racket-users] Is this a good uninstall then install Racket plan...
Thanks for clarifying! It sounds to me like the solution might be much much simpler than re-installing an earlier version of racket. Here’s what I recommend. 1) Delete all of the “compiled” subdirectories in your development path. 2) run “raco setup”. It seems likely to me that this will solve the problem you’re seeing, and is very unlikely to break anything that’s not currently broken. There are other more complicated or refined versions of this, but at the end of the day, this error is probably solved by just moving the offending file out of the way.
