      ... I didn't dare to ...
      <br>
      <br>
      The problem with compiling the dev version imho is, that you will
      have to recompile it permanently if you are trying to be of any
      help with bug tracking, am I right? (Haven't compiled anything
      yet, cause I don't get rid of the knots in my brain)
      <br>
      <br>
      On the other hand, to use QGIS "professionaly", I need GDAL with
      FGDB and MrSID support, so I will have to compile GDAL myself
      beforehand.
      <br>
      But wanting to use it for work, I better not use the master
      version but the stable.
      <br>
      <br>
      So, as I see it, it would be much better to compile the stable
      version and then get the master version for the candies and the
      testing from debian-nightly.
      <br>
      But all guidelines propose it the other way round, which I do not
      really understand ...
      <br>
      <br>
      Said this, when I want to compile the stable version instead of
      the master, but with a "handmade" GDAL, is there any way to take
      benefit from the ubuntugis-unstable repository (things I can
      install beforehand and then disabling the repository again)?
      <br>
      <br>
      As I said, I have knots in my brain on this and never managed to
      have a nice and easy environment on Ubuntu as I have with Windows
      (which is saaaad....)
      <br>
      Can someone help me with the surgery?
      <br>
      <br>
      Cheers

        non-compile way I can think of on an Ubuntu box would be to run
        <br>
        a virtual machine. Otherwise you have to compile to avoid
        package

        manager conflicts.

        <br>
        So up to you which is more time/hassle to setup.

          that version you need to add relevant paths to PATH and

          I have a shell function that sets this up on demand:

            <br>
            <br>
            I'm wondering if there is there a simple way to run stable
            and master
            <br>
            versions of QGIS on Ubuntu? By simple, I mean - if possible
            - without
            <br>
            compile QGIS from source.
            <br>
            <br>
            For now, as described in doc [1], I edit
            /etc/apt/sources.list to define
            <br>
            which repository to use : <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
              href="http://qgis.org/debian">http://qgis.org/debian</a>
            or
            <br>
            <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
              href="http://qgis.org/debian-nightly">http://qgis.org/debian-nightly</a>.
            But doing like this, I cannot run the two
            <br>
            versions at the same time.
            <br>
            <br>
            Thank you in advance for your answers.
