</p><p>
A dump/restore is NOT required for those running 6.3.  A
<code class="literal">make distclean</code>, <code class="literal">make</code>, and <code class="literal">make install</code> is all that is required.
This last step should be performed while the postmaster is not running.
You should re-link any custom applications that use <span class="productname">PostgreSQL</span> libraries.
</p><p>
For upgrades from pre-6.3 installations,
refer to the installation and migration instructions for version 6.3.
