Note about upgrading

If you are using tarballs and upgrading from an older version than 0.9.8.5, you should run these commands after extracting 0.9.8.6:

    # cd /scratchbox/compilers/bin
    # ./wrapper_links remove
    # ./wrapper_links create

This step is not necessary if you are using Debian or RPM packages.
