Org 9.7 doesn't stick

I keep installing the Org 9.7.x package and Org keeps reverting to 9.6.x. I don't want to use the built-in version, but it seems I'm stuck with it. I package-install version 9.7 and it works. Well, it works until the next time I upgrade packages or maybe just touch something the wrong way. I can't figure it out and don't feel like bothering with it.
