FCKeditor is out of beta! Great!
Now how do I upgrade a module that already has some configuration done to it in Drupal? In Unix terms, do I just:

% rm -rf public_html/modules/fckeditor
% mv staging/fckeditor public_html/modules/

?

Is it okay to do this with all the profiles and stuff currently jangling around in Drupal's internal state? Or will this cause lossage, if, for example, Drupal is accessed between the rm -rf and the mv?

It's always a good idea to check the release notes to make sure there's nothing you need to worry about with the upgrade. And I suggest taking the site offline. But the commands are ok. Don't forget to run update.php.
