IMHO, deleting and re-installing the whole thing _isn’t_ that difficult (at least, under \*nix).

1. `rm -rf {your-old-julia-binary-folder}`

2. using @fredrikekre’s command

This is quicker and cleaner the overwriting existing Julia’s directory. For installed packages, `~/.julia/` with automatically take care of them. For instance, you have `v1.0` and `v1.1` in `~/.julia/compiled`.

In practice, [`Pkg> st` and `Pkg> update`](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/pkg-add-pycall-every-time/24136/2) in the new version will take care of everything.
