No, there is not, but save all your configuration files and try to use
them in the latest version. If you're going from a version of 2.x to a
newer version of the same, chances are the old conf files will work
fine (although I think 2.5 made me fix a few things). If you're
upgrading from 1.x, there are quite a few entries that will have to be
altered.
