hi, it's kind of possible. in a sense that dt will not crash, all rpaths should be relative and the plugins should only be loaded for the correct version (if you install one to /usr and the other to /opt/darktable, say).
note, however, that the library and processing stacks are not backward compatible. i.e. an image that you opened with the newer version of dt, or a library file that you opened with the git master version will not necessarily work again when going back to the old version. i would be very careful trying such a mixed setup. maybe try the development version on a few test images for a bit and see whether you like it better? and then decide for one. cheers, jo On Fri, Jun 17, 2016 at 7:02 AM, Edward Kamau <emk.mym...@gmail.com> wrote: > Is it possible to run the development version of dt alongside the current > stable release? > > ____________________________________________________________________________ > darktable user mailing list > to unsubscribe send a mail to darktable-user+unsubscr...@lists.darktable.org > ____________________________________________________________________________ darktable user mailing list to unsubscribe send a mail to darktable-user+unsubscr...@lists.darktable.org
