Exactly which steps you will need to take depends on your installation process. If you installed Django with pip_, you can use the ``--upgrade`` or ``-U`` flag:

Remove any old versions of Django
=================================
If you are upgrading your installation of Django from a previous version,
you will need to uninstall the old Django version before installing the
new version.
If you installed Django using pip_ or ``easy_install`` previously, installing
with pip_ or ``easy_install`` again will automatically take care of the old
version, so you don't need to do it yourself.
If you previously installed Django using ``python setup.py install``,
uninstalling is as simple as deleting the ``django`` directory from your Python
``site-packages``. To find the directory you need to remove, you can run the
following at your shell prompt (not the interactive Python prompt):
.. console::
$ python -c "import django; print(django.__path__)"
