Hi list,

If you install a new Ethereal version without uninstalling the previous
version, then you will have multiple copies of the Ethereal plugins, all in
a directory with the Ethereal version.

I think it makes sense to ask the end-user whether he first wants to
uninstall a previous version if one is found (hint: registry keys) before
installing a new version. I however don't know how to do this in NSIS.

Regards,

Olivier
