Just found Google Maps 4.6 on Market. But tried several times and all failed on installation with just the notification "Installation unsuccessful". Download seems completed and the message was prompted a while after installation started.

I'm using VR12. Anyone else has this problem?
 
Same thing happened here on a different (2.2) ROM. Maps is installed on /system here, which may be the reason. Check for a folder "download" on your microSD card; apps that fail to install will usually be found there. Tap the .apk and choose to install it when prompted.

I believe you're correct. I downloaded the APK for Google Maps 4.6 and installed it manually. Went through without any problem.

But I remember previous versions of Google Maps upgrade normally. Hope Google can fix it, at least for others.
