just delete the files which conflict...
there is no otehr way, if you installed it with make install, and dont have the sources anymore...

/usr/bin/cas
usr/bin/amule
/usr/bin/amulecmdDLG

/usr/bin/wxcas

still getting this error when I try to instal the rpm package
"amule-2.0.3-0.lvn.1.3.i386.rmp"

[root@localhost user001]# rpm -ivh amule-2.0.3-0.lvn.1.3.i386.rpm

Shouldn't it be possible to just upgrade with rpm? I have something like "rpm -U lalala.rpm" in the back of my head, but before doing so I sugest thorough reading of 'man rpm'...

the -U only works if the structure of the file in the rpms, dont change....if I remeber correctly, and we have lots of changes regarding webserver....
but an uninstall with -e and tehn reinstall with -Uvh or -ivh should work anyway
