CVS is nice, but not always working. I think the easiest way is:

- Rename (backup) the current installation (e. g. mv /opt/OpenTRS/ to 
/opt/OpenTRS-$DATE/)
- Install the new release (e. g. into /opt/OpenTRS/)
- Do database upgrade (e. g. cat /opt/OpenTRS/scripts/DBUpdate.mysql.sql | mysql -f -u 
root -p otrs)
- Update the /opt/OpenTRS/Kernel/Config.pm (db settings, ...)

If you run in trouble with the new release, you can switch back to the old 
installation.

Old programmers never die. They just branch to a new address.
