The only issue is that whichever is listed 1st in Path
will be invoked Unless you use the full path when invoking
/usr/bin/emelfm2, /usr/local/emelfm2 /whatever/emelfm2 etc.
Just for fun last night I built an rpm for emelfm2 using
prefix=/home/charles/emelfm2-svn
and for post/postun I used
%post
ln -s /home/charles/emelfm2-svn/bin/emelfm2 /usr/bin/emelfm2-svn
%postun
rm -f /usr/bin/emelfm2-svn
If I invoke with emelfm2 my /usr/bin install is launched if I
invoke with emelfm2-svn my /home/charles install is launched.
I can launch/run either/both without issue.
I permanently have and use/run Oracle java and firefox-nightly
from /home
Charles
