I have several versions of racket installed on Ubuntu linux at default 
linux locations.
I think I should uninstall them all.
Then after downloading a PPA from the racket web site
install the version I want to a single directory. (I would be downloading 
version: 7.8)
Does this sound like a plan sound okay?

I gather from the comments I have received from John Clements, that he 
suspects I am having some sort of problem that is motivating the desire to 
return to an earlier version
of Racket. 

I believe the problem is where I have placed my racket code files.
I've been putting off moving them and would like to continue putting off 
moving them.

I inadvertently upgraded to Racket v8.0 a couple of days ago. 

Welcome to Racket v8.0 [cs].
> (current-library-collection-paths)
'(#<path:/home/don/.plt-scheme/4.2.1/collects>
  #<path:/home/don/.racket/8.0/collects>
  #<path:/usr/share/racket/collects/>)

My code files all begin here: /home/don/.plt-scheme/4.2.1/collects/...

Racket error message when I run:
$ my-prog
read-compiled-linklet: version mismatch  expected: "8.0"  found: "7.8"  in: 
/home/don/.plt-scheme/4.2.1/collects/DG/all/a/b/fn/filename-from-path-and-filename/compiled/filename-from-path-and-filename_ss.zo

So, since my compiled file was compiled under Racket version 7.8, there is 
a mismatch since the Racket now installed is Racket v. 8.0.  Thus the 
reason I'd like to return to running Racket v. 7.8.
Thanks for your advice.
Don
