Change from Librecad 2.2.0 alpha

I'm running Librecad on Ubuntu MATE 16.04 and I opted for a PPA using sudo add-apt-repository ppa:librecad-dev/librecad-daily which gave me LC 2.2.0 alpha, but now feel I'd be better (safer with my limited knowledge) using the latest stable version.

I've found a PPA  sudo add-apt-repository ppa:librecad-dev/librecad-stable  which apparently will install this version.

However I'd really appreciate some advice on how best to achieve the change. For example will I need to delete LC 2.2.0?
If so what is the cleanest and safest way to do this?
Also will it update along with other packages when I run Symantec for updates?

Apart from some test runs, I've created no important drawings so backward compatibility will not matter.

Alternatively if I just stay with 2.2.0, will I be advised when the "Official" version is released?

As you can see I really need help, so thanks to anyone in anticipation.

Hal.
