The most common cause of this is that you installed the older version
from source (so it is in /usr/local and takes precedence over the
version installed by the package manager in /usr).

If you have the source tree used to install it, you can run `make
uninstall` to get rid of it, otherwise you'll have to clean up
/usr/local manually.
