[Freeswitch-users] Updating FS to a particular version

[Michael Collins]

FS will never overwrite existing configs in the conf directory. However,
you can be extra safe by backing up your conf directory, performing your
update, then restoring your conf directory.

As far as the non-standard "configure" script that will need to be backed
up as well. You'll need to restore that script after you run or re-run the
bootstrap.sh script. Same goes for modules.conf - back it up and restore it
after you run the modified configure script. In cases like this I recommend
that you write a simple shell script and add a few comments to it so that
the next time you do this in a few months you'll know not only what is
supposed to happen (shell script commands) but why (comments).
