Many thanks to the following folks who responded with their comments, which I 
am paraphrasing here:

James Knott advises to install new packages over the old ones and said that he 
had had no problems while doing so.

TerryJ says that one should backup user files, user settings, and any 
customized files.  Also, states that the dictionary.lst file would be 
overwritten, and so should be backed up.  Further says he has seen reports 
that another user has lost templates while updating, although it may just be 
the links to the templates.

Dan Lewis said that when he upgraded, the settings were preserved, but agreed 
with Terry that the additional language dictionaries were lost

Thanks a lot, people, and I appreciate your help and inputs.
