Would the AUR let me have the current Krita and the old one installed simultaneously? My experience with repo/package models suggests it very much would not.

- wadkar 6y agoI don't think so. It should be possible to install the older version in different prefix (e.g. `./configure --prefix=/opt`) but I don't think AUR supports multiple slots (like portage does) out of the box. My cursory search on the interweb did not yield any promising results on the Arch wiki either. Happy to be corrected, of course.
