It would be a good idea to have only one version of Subversion
installed at a time, so it's probably a good idea to remove 1.3.2
using your package manager before you try to compile and install
1.4.2 by hand.

Yes, you can use your existing 1.3.x repositories with 1.4.x. You may
see a performance improvement if you dump and reload your
repositories though. To do this, follow the instructions in the FAQ:
