How do you know you have 1.8.2 ?  As a first step you'll want to
find out where 1.8.2 is installed and uninstalled the 1.7.2 packages
(and its devel package).

Nope, infact they can be installed in parallel to simplify roll out
in production environments.  The only unversioned files are the
gnumeric executable itself and the docs.  However, its unlikely you
want one of the development series in comparison to 1.2.1.  The new
charting engine did not go in until 1.1.19, and you'll definitely
want that.
 
Good Luck
