    1. Upgrading from a pre-15.10.10 version of TTU Client Utilities (e.g., 15.00.*, 14.10.*, etc.)

      If a pre-15.10.10 version of TTU Client Utilities is installed, those packages are incompatible with this version and must be removed. A screen similar to the following will display:

      The following product(s) are incompatible with the version (16.20.00) of TTU to be installed:
      tdicu-14.10.00.00
      
      The above product(s) must be removed before installing 16.20.00.
      
      The above products can be automatically removed at this time.
      Enter "Yes" to remove the above products and continue with the installation or "No" to cancel the installation? ([y/n] default: Y):   
      

      'Y' (Yes) Removes the previous packages.

      'N' (No) Cancels the installation. A screen similar to the following displays:

      Cancelling the installation. Leaving packages prior to pre-15.10.10 installed.
      These packages should be removed before installing 16.20 packages.
      

      The installer exits if 'N' is entered.

    2. If a 15.10.10 or later release is installed, a screen similar to the following displays:
      The 15.10 TTU Client Software is currently installed and can co-exist with the 16.20 release.
      
      Enter "Yes" to remove the previous release(s) and continue with the installation or "No" to keep the previous release? ([y/n] default: Y):
