I assume you mean you are using 1.8.12, which is what is currently in
the Dapper repository.

Installing 1.9.8 will overwrite 1.8.12 - AFAIK they can't coexist.
However - I wouldn't have any worries about using 1.9.8 - it seems more
stable to me. I get no annoying crashes with scheduled transactions or
graphs.

As I said in the previous post, I had to give Synaptic/apt/aptitude a
helping hand, but it wasn't hard and I was given good advice here.
