Jan Richter commented on JBDS-3698:
-----------------------------------

There is one more thing I forgot to mention here - as of this version, if an older than required version is found, the installer will not let you proceed until you have dealt with it on your own. Plus in this release you are very much stuck with what the installer detects (you can't choose if you want to use the detected version or install anew). Thus if an old version is detected, you have to quit the installer, uninstall the software in question and start the installer again. Might be worth noting in the docs :)

> It's good that the installer will allow users to have/retain their own installed components, and verify that the installed versions are supported, but we should provide the users with a documented list of the ranges of supported versions. Thx!
