    There's a number of ways really.

    Generally what I do is -

    Fetch the source files with wget http://wordpress.org/latest.tar.gz
    unzip to "wordpress" with tar -xzf latest.tar.gz
    cd wordpress
    copy -r * \path\to\my\web\files\

    Then check through my web files for any old crud that might need removing.

    Et voila. The codex may have fuller instructions.
