[OSRM-talk] File is incompatible with this version of OSRM (v5.28.0)

[Nils Nolde]

I wrote this yesterday, but it exceeded the mailing list's max size, so here is the scrubbed version:)

Since you installed from source, apt-get has no idea of OSRM. I'm not even sure what it'd really do in this case, likely nothing.

It should generally be fine to simply install over the current installation with https://github.com/Project-OSRM/osrm-backend/wiki/Building-OSRM#building (after installing all dependencies), I do that all the time with other projects, but it's probably not "best practice" if you don't know the project too well. I just had a quick look: OSRM has an uninstall target, you can try "(sudo) make -C build uninstall" (if you did follow those instructions). By default everything should be installed to /usr/local/<include/lib/share/etc>, I'd have a look if everything was really removed. Those convenience (likely untested) targets tend to get stale after some while.

In case you're more familiar with Docker and it's fine by your IT, I'd go that route. Makes you independent of the host OS.
