No. And I'm honestly confused by you amusing something like that. The
way Icecast 2.5.x is started has not changed at all since before 2.4.x.
So... the way to run it as a service (and I think by that you mean as a
daemon) is exactly the same as for 2.4.x.
With best regards,

The correct way is to /install/ it. Just like you would with 2.4.x.
Swapping files is very likely to break things. Most users forget to
swap *all* parts. And if you do swap all parts, how is that any
different from uninstalling the old version and installing the new
version? ;)
With best regards,
