How to install several versions of a package simultaneously?

hello, I'm needing python2.5 for a few things but I don't want to downgrade my default python instead I would like to have both, the one from the repos as the default and the old one invoked as python2.5 any tips on how to do that? I've found an old package of python on the rollback machine but it conflicts with the current and I don't see any pacman options to install it as something else.

oh that's fantastic! many thanks

  • How to install several instances of the same application on a computer?

    Hej,
    I have an application in LV 2009, where I have created an installer. The installer installs to a directory called \Receiver relative to the Program Files directory. If I install this once to a computer, everything is OK.
    However, I want to install the same application twice on the same computer. There should be no conflicts between the two applications, since I can configure them to work on different directories and ports. But if I call the installer again, and selects another directory, nothing is installed and I get the message "Installation Summary - No software will be installed or removed". It seems like the installer ignores that I have selected another directory, and just uses the default directory, relative to the Program Files directory.
    Anyone knows the trick, how to install several instances on the same computer ?

    Hi Jan,
    This is so because each installer has a GUID that is used to check whether the application needs to be upgraded or not. (It's a Microsoft function).
    What you can do is create a new installer with a different GUID (copy the installer in the projects), and check witha  text editor whether this GUID has changed.
    But any specific reason you need two seperate installs? You can run the application twice with a specific INI token:
    allowmultipleinstances=True

  • I would need several version of a package

    I think I saw this somewhere on Arch web site : only one version of each package, latest one.
    But, I need several version of some packages.
    I'm a developer, and I need apache tomcat 4 & 5 (web server mostly use version 4).
    The same for php, I need version 4 as I have to use this version for some project.
    I would also need mysql version 4.0 (and latest 3;XX) because I have to use them at work for various resons.
    There are many example. I know I can install these manually, but it's a shame as there is a powerful package manager.
    I don"t say that every packages sould have several version, but some obviously need.
    Is there any plan on adding such a feature ?

    you have the tools to host local repositories with the olser packages you need. you can get old build from the web interface to the CVS and all you would have to do is change some destination locations so that the older or newer packages are not replacing each other.
    As for official Arch support ... it may someday happen but only if there are the people who need and one of them want sto maintain the packages

  • How to install older versions of Flash Player(ActiveX) in Win 8?

    Hello all,
    How to install older version of Flash Player in Windows 8? and how to uninstall default Flash Player that come from IE10 in Windows 8?
    Actually I want to install Adobe_Flash_Player_(IE)_v11.7.700.224.exe in Windows 8.
    Is it possible to overcome this issue? If it is not, could you share me your information on this issue?
    Thanks in advance.
    RK.

    Thank you for reply..
    Actually i uninstalled the existing version of Flash Player from my Windows 8 PC, but when i tried to install the older version, it was not allowing me to install and was showing that my browser is included with latest version.
    Even i followed the below given websites, it didn't given any remedy for it.
    http://flash-focus.blogspot.in/2007/03/installing-previous-versions-of-flash.html
    http://www.itsecdb.com/oval/objectdetails/oval/org.mitre.oval/obj/7075/windows-registry_ob ject-Registry-that-holds-the-version-of-the-Adobe-Flash-Player-in/
    So that my PC is restricting the older version installation from somewhere which holds the version information and that user cannot modify/delete that information. If i know that mystery i can install any version of Flash Player in my Windows 8.
    I hope i will find this.
    Thanks for your support.

  • How to install 2 Versions side-by-side

    I have adobe 5.0 installed -- it's the full package, with Distiller, pdf printer, writer, etc.  I need to install Reader v9.  I do not want to overwrite the ADOBE WRITER 5.0 installation.  I want to use the ADOBE 5.0 writer/reader as the default, and use adobe 9 reader only for special documents that won't download or save otherwise.
    I'm using XP SP3.
    How can I do this?

    If you have XP, you can right click on a PDF and select Open With to select the default program for opening the PDF. However, if Reader is running in the background (it would appear as AcroRd32 in the task list), then you will likely get the PDF to open in Reader anyway. When you start Reader, it does not generally totally remove itself from memory when you close it. I believe there is a setting in the options for not retaining par in memory. Right now I do not show Reader 9 in my system. I also have PDFs to automatically open with AA5 on this machine. When I can not open the file in AA5, then I revert to AR9, but only then. I have to take extra steps to open in AR9, but I like this method. When I need more control, I go to one of my newer machines with a newer version of AA.

  • How to install SWC and load the package in CS3

    hello,
    does anyone know how to install a swc and load the package?
    I have installed the two SWC as3corelib-.92.1 and
    xmlsyndication.swc into components, but when I call the package
    from an AS file nothing happens other than, 1172: Definition
    com.adobe:xml could not be found.
    They turn up ok in flash as components, but I think I miss
    something..
    anyone knows how to make these to work in flash so I can make
    this:
    http://www.ploem.be/blog/?page_id=105
    hints, advice anything most appreciated.!
    //Peter

    right :) an instance of a component needs to be either
    dragged to the stage, or in some cases into the file Library,
    before they become available in your file. is it working
    now?

  • How to remove several versions of firefox remotely

    I have several versions of firefox, i want to uninstall all of them to install from sccm the last one in all computers.
    is there a msi or an universal uninstaller?
    Thans a lot,

    You can install as many different releases of Sun Studio as you like on one computer. You don't need Solaris 10, and you don't need zones. You need to pay attention to only 2 things.
    1. You need to install each release in a different base directory. You can install at most one release in the default location, /opt. Other releases need to be installed each in a different location.
    2. You should have at most one release directory on your path at a time, to avoid accidently mixing components from different releases. If you use the GUI for development, make sure the release directory on your path (if you have one) is the one you intend to use. The GUI checks your path first for compilers. If none are found, the GUI uses its own compilers.

    ok, i am perfectly new to iphone. i have downloaded demo version of the Vocedial onto my desktop. i have no idea how to install it onto the iphone 3g. please, be specific in your instructions, i am a total noob.
    yes, i do have itunes and can sync. just have no idea how make them find that program.
    will appreciate.

    well, like i always knew it: WONNA THINGS DONE RIGHT, DO THEM YOURSELF
    in order to install application that was not downloaded from itunes store, pop up itunes, then click on file>add file> browse to the file> click on file>add it. now it'll be in itunes library and itunes will recognise it.
    go to your phone in itunes>on the top of the window go to applications>you should see your file now. check "chose application to sync" then check whatever application you have in the large pan now>click on sync down at the bottom. of course, you must have your phone connected before you do all this. then it does its magic.
