Yes, this is the plan -- but I need a few hours for this task, it's
not easy to get them in a raw.

My preferred way is to install from git.

When you install from git you need to run 

~$ make

or 

~$ make autoloads

and to put org-mode/lisp in your load-path.

You can install/update from ELPA, but you need to do this from an
Emacs session where you did *not* load Org.  See the installation 
instructions in the manual.

Yes, that's frequent problem when upgrading from ELPA.

Hope you'll enjoy a fresh Org soon :)
