[racket-dev] Pre-Release Checklist for v6.1.1, Second Call

Is it possible that you installed on top of an existing v6.0.900.900
installation (for the previous release's candidate)?

The file

  share/pkgs/drracket/drracket/private/compiled/rectangle-intersect_rkt.zo

existed in v6.0.900.900, but it does not exist in v6.1.0.900, because
the library moved to a different package, "drracket-tool-lib". If you
installed v6.1.0.900 on top of v6.0.900.900, then the file would not
get replaced, and the module search would potentially find the old file
instead of the replacement that is in a different location.
