a rather simple question

[Philipp Bliedung]

hi

I have jdk-1.1.8-3 installed right now. I want to update to jdk-1.2.2 so
I got the tar.gz file.
Now my question: how can I _replace_ the old by the new?
For jdk-1.1.8-3 I uesed apt-get and it told me to get the jdk-1.1.8-3
....tar.gz file and installed it. How can I replace this version by the
new one? I didn't find a package that does that.


Thanks,
Philipp
