Re: [Qgis-user] Installing either qgis 2.X and qgis 3.X

[Patrick Dunford]

Compiling different versions is for really dedicated hard core people. 
You lose the advantage of a package management system being able to 
automatically update the packages when updates are released. Once you 
have compiled a version it is fixed in time because it is not able to be 
managed by the package management system so when a new release comes out 
you have to compile that version, and so on.


This is why I personally recommend some form of virtualisation as being 
a more straightforward solution for most people. I used Oracle 
VirtualBox on Linux and had a pile of VMs and they don't take up much 
disk space, you just need to ensure you have enough RAM on your computer 
to be able to allocate a reasonable amount to a VM. The guest OS can be 
a very lightweight environment like Lubuntu that doesn't have all the 
bells and whistles and eye candy that people might have with vanilla 
Ubuntu and doesn't gobble up a lot of system resources.

Yes, at the beginning the slope could be hard, but once you know how

Have a look at:

If I run the flatpak with the development version installed from apt, I 
can no longer use the development version.

You can have both QGIS installed from Flatpak and from rpm/deb on the 
same machine, at least on Fedora (like I do: stable from flatpak and 
nightly from RPM).

I've gone the route of schroot, and also lxd (similar to docker but a
little easier to manage) would be an option on Ubuntu.

I noticed people mentioned Flatpak and AppImage, what about SNAPS.
Pretty sure SNAPS would let you have multiple versions on the same
machine at the same time. Didn't realize Flatpak doesn't.

Thanks,
Alex

Hi, you are right, but there is currently (only) a latest stable (3.4.2)
flatpak, but in that way it is possible to run the ubuntu installed 2.18
next to this flatpak 3.4 version :-)

Best of both worlds \o/

[Qgis-user] Installing either qgis 2.X and qgis 3.X

[Giacomo Fontanelli]

Hello forum

I'm using QGIS 3.4 on my laptop with Ubuntu 18.10.

Is it possible to install also qgis 2.18 along with qgis 3.4?

I added also the repository for qgis 2.18 (deb
http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntugis-ltr/ubuntugis-unstable/ubuntu bionic
main) to my sources.list.

What is the correct repository for ubuntugis 2.18?

I tried deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntugis-ltr/ubuntugis-unstable/ubuntu
bionic main but is not recognized.

How to address the 2.18 installation during the sudo apt install procedures?

thank you very much
