May this be corrected in some way (for example, modify CONFLICTS variable and  install each new PostgreSQL version in its own directory, e.g. ${LOCALBASE}/postgresql/XX/, where XX is 90 , 91 and so on). This will allow us to use pg_upgrade to upgrade databases (it needs binary files from both new and old postgresql version).

Did anybody find a good solution for this?
I'm just planning upgrade from 9.1.x to 9.2.x.
