Did you download the RPM version or the tarball (and compiled it
yourself)?

If you downloaded the tarball, you need to remove the old freeciv on your
system. Try "rpm -e freeciv" or "rpm -e freeciv-client". Once you have
done that, you may have to set your PATH to wherever freeciv is located.
Alternatively, download the RPM version instead and upgrade over the old
freeciv.
