Re: gEDA-user: How to have two installations of PCB at once

I have two different pcb programs installed now.

I used
 .configure --prefix=/opt/pcbhead  --enable-maintainer-mode
make
make install

for one,
and PATH leads to both /opt/pcb/bin:/opt/pcbhead/bin


The other installed PCB was made with
./configure --prefix=/opt/pcb  --disable-doc --with-gui=lesstif
make
make install


Since the pcb executable is a script containing hard-coded paths to executable parts of PCB, I renamed /opt/pcbhead/bin/pcb to /opt/pcbhead/bin/pcbhead
and now I can excute pcb or pcbhead from any dir on my workstation. 

take a look at

./configure --help

and there should be an option that would let you append -head or -20060822 or whatever to the executibles.

--program-suffix is the one you want.

Also look at --program-transform-name if you want more flexibility.
