How can I have multiple inkscape versions on the same machine (im on fedora8) and can you choose if those use the same or their own profiles?
All just guesses but...
- Call them by different names or put them in different places.
However if they use different versions of the same libs - well, that's up to you how messy you want to make you system.
I just checked my inkscape: $ inkscape --version Inkscape 0.45.1 (Mar 21 2007) $ ldd /usr/bin/inkscape | wc 76 301 4294 ...wow, inkscape is linking into about 76 different libs! Good luck at trying to support older versions!
The versions I want aren't so far apart, I want official 0.46 and a new dev build, maybe one more dev build if possible.
I tried compiling with "make" from a different folder (if I use make install everything will go in the official place and replace my current version right?) but some features are missing (i get warnings when running that version), I think it might be python related features.
What do you mean "call them by different names"?
