you don't "upgrade" gems, you just install or uninstall them. you can
uninstall any version of a gem library at any time. so after you've
installed the new library, you can test it out to make sure it works and
then uninstall the old one. or you can leave it; there's really no harm in
leaving it around.

do you have a specific concern?
