Hi,

You will need to remove all traces of the old version to avoid problems.

The location of the downloaded tarball should not matter according to
the projects build instructions (see the README text at the bottom). You
can build it in your home partition with normal user permissions. The
"make install" step is where you will probably need "sudo" for
permission to install it (normally under /usr):
https://github.com/iurie-sw/geonkick
It is a pretty standard make & make install build system with cmake.
Although you need to build the Redkite GUI toolkit first.

I copy the instructions here:
On Debian, Ubuntu, Ubuntu Studio install:

build and install first Redkite, than:
apt-get install build-essential
apt-get install cmake
apt-get install qjackctl libjack-dev libsndfile-dev
apt-get install rapidjson-dev
apt-get install lv2-dev

Build & install Geonkick

Clone the Geonkick code repository, compile and install

    git clone https://gitlab.com/iurie-sw/geonkick.git
    mkdir geonkick/build
    cd geonkick/build
    cmake ../
    make
    make install

Have you considered requesting that it is packaged for Debian to make it
easy for everyone to install it in the future? Debian packages will
eventually migrate to Ubuntu. It looks like it is Free software - GPL-3.
