I&#39;m sure this is an FAQ, but I haven&#39;t been able to find it.<br><br>The Org-mode manual says under &quot;Installation&quot;, &quot;<i>If you are using a version of Org that is part of the Emacs
distribution or an XEmacs package, please skip this section and go directly
to <a href="http://orgmode.org/manual/Activation.html#Activation">Activation</a>.&quot;</i>  The problem is that the distribution version I have, bundled in with the emacs package supplied by openSUSE, is more than a major revision out of date, at least with regard to org-mode. So the question is, what&#39;s the proper way to upgrade it without breaking anything by accident?<br>
<br>Let&#39;s assume I have root access to the computer. Is it as simple as downloading the current org-mode source, running make and all that, and then replacing the existing .elc files in /usr/share/emacs/23.2/lisp/org with the new ones?<br clear="all">
