That close to upgrading Gnome. =



So close and yet so far.   I have garnome-0.18.3 in
/home/temp/garnome/  and gnome in /home/temp/gnome/ and am
trying to figure out the next step.   I have printed out
garnome's README but my brain's semantics translator can't
handle the task of understanding it enough so that I
dare to take the next step.   I also read the information on
the recommended websites in README but apparently I don't
have the experience or education to get much from it. Maybe it's my age that gets in the way--84 and it's a big jump from Commodore64 Basic to Progeny/Debian.


The following files are in garnome:

ChangeLog*  README*     gar.conf.mk*   gar.mk *   gstreamer/
Makefile*   category.mk*  gar.lib.mk*  gnome/     kde/

There are 60 tar.gz.tar files in  gnome 2.0-2.0.3 and one
gz file

Some questions:

Are garnome and gnome positioned in suitable directories
  /home/temp/garnome    and /home/temp/gnome  ?

Is it necessary to remove the existing gnome files before
starting the installation of the new files?

Can someone give me a clue or two as to what the next few steps should be to upgrade Gnome? If you just list commands, I can fill in the explanations myself.

Thank you.

Alex
