just follow "GENERAL INSTALLATION" in README, upgrade instructions are
provided when needed.

to quickly answer, you untar RT in another directory than your
production one (some kind of src or tmp directory). You follow steps the
same as for installation, but:

- you read UPGRADING file
- you run make upgrade instead of make install

but once again, read carefully README file, everything you need is
inside.

PS: don't forget to backup before upgrade...
