Well, *how* can I do that?

Windows 10 client:
------------------
On the Collabnet site I only found this command line installer for Win x64:
CollabNetSubversion-client-1.12.2-1-x64.exe

And I have no idea how to upgrade the two servers either (I am just a user turned admin for SVN).

Ubuntu mirror server:
---------------------
So if I installed SVN server on ubuntu 16.04.4 LTS using the Apache SVN and got 1.9.7,
then how do I upgrade it to the lates long time support version? It seems I would have
to dig into Apache internals etc, which is not my forte...
Ubuntu 16 was upgraded to Ubuntu 18 LTS not so long ago and SVN survived without problems.

Windows 16 server main SVN server:
----------------------------------
Here I used the VisualSVN installer VisualSVN-Server-3.6.4-x64.msi two years ago and got SVN 1.9.7
But upgrading this to a later version seems like a dangerous endeavour when I read about it
on their site... Apparently one gets to 1.10.6 with the newest upgrade.
I cannot afford even a low probability chance of failure since this server
is company mission critical.

What dangers will I encounter if I leave everything as is?
