Installing new versions of vim doesn't uninstall old versions

Subject: Installing new versions of vim doesn't uninstall old versions

I recently had a problem with vim that was the result of my unwittingly having two previous versions of vim in my /usr/bin.  Is it normal for the cygwin installer not to delete or clobber the previous versions?  I'm not sure what I did wrong, if anything, in updating my cygwin installation.


Best regards,
John
