wine users - Aug 2010 - When rebuilding new 1.3 version, uninstall first?

When pulling a new version of the Wine1.3 source from Git, do I need to first
uninstall the current the current wine1.3 before building and installing the new
version?

If so, what's the command for that, since Wine1.3 is installed with
tools/wineinstall instead of make install?  Or do I use 'make uninstall'
anyway?  Or can I just overwrite the old version?

How you remove the old version of Wine depends on how you installed it.  
If you used something like Synaptic or yum you have to use the remove 
version of the command.  If you installed it from source, you can use 
the make uninstall command.

Thanks.  I installed it using winedir/tools/wineinstall, as the Wine 1.3 README
instructs.

Are you expected to use 'make uninstall' to uninstall that?  Or
something else?

There doesn't seem to be any uninstall code in the tools/wineinstall source,
but just want to verify b/f I go and do something wrong that leaves some file
fragments lying around that get mixed up in the new install, or whatever.
