Have you ever heard of something called 'modules'?
http://modules.sourceforge.net/
We're using it at work, and it works really well for us. For instance,
I've just spent two hours wrestling with xdvi v22.71 and then it was great
being able to do:
module rm xdvi/22.71
module add xdvi/22.05
to go back to the old version.
In my case, I just do:
module rm lyx
module add lyx/devel
to setup the environment for working with the development version. The
drawback with using modules is that you usually have to compile stuff
manually, i.e. add stuff like --prefix=/pkg/cvs/devel
Mostly I'm using it to switch between different MATLAB versions :-)
