What is the issue?

Hi all, I am suffering from updating the ollama.

Fisrtly, my computer could not connect to github, thus I choose the manual installation to update ollama from 0.5.11 to 0.6.5.

I have downloaded the tgz file from

https://ollama.com/download/ollama-linux-amd64.tgz

, which is the tar file of ollama-0.6.5. (I have install it on another machine and verify that the version is correct)

However, I firstly remove the corresponding ollama files in /usr/lib/ollama by
sudo rm -rf /usr/lib/ollama then sudo tar -C /usr -xzf ollama-linux-amd64.tgz , as the ollama document https://github.com/ollama/ollama/blob/main/docs/linux.md said.

However, the ollama version is still 0.5.11 instead of 0.6.5.

Any suggestions or what I have done is incorrect?

Thanks!

Nevermind. The previous ollama I have installed in /usr/local. Problem solved.
