Best idea would be editing Slackware's php.SlackBuild, creating new package and using upgradepkg to upgrade it.

    If you have your package in /tmp like /tmp/php-5.2.17-i486-1_slack13.2.txz then you do just upgradepkg /tmp/php-5.2.17-i486-1_slack13.1.txz as root. If you didn't change build number then you need to add --reinstall switch. Check manpages: man upgradepkg – Maciej Apr 01 '11 at 09:58

The very easy way is, remove your old packages first then install your fresh packages then :) It's so easy right ? :D

Btw @APC, how do you create new packages ? Using slackbuild script ? Or manualy ? If you use SlackBuild script, which SlackBuild script do you use ? From Slackware installer or from SBo site ?
