Hi Bernd,

a pragmatic solution which I have grown to like is using conda 
environments. Using mamba instead of the default conda via 
https://github.com/conda-forge/miniforge to reduce annoyances and then 
it is for example a simple "conda --create qgis_3.34 qgis=3.34" to get a 
nicely isolated QGIS 3.34 with pdal etc.

Just make sure to deactivate the base environment in your 
terminal/shell, otherwise you are trading one potential mess for another ;)

Cheers, Hannes
