== How to install two (or more) versions of the NetBeans Platform on Fedora? == === Prerequisites === * Fedora 10 or later. * The following RPM binary package files are accessible for the RPM Package Manager: ** All package files of desired versions of the NetBeans Platform. ** All RPM files of the packages that are required by all the desired versions of the NetBeans Platform. === Limitations and Warnings === {{warning|Please, be careful with updating of the packages that are installed according to these instructions. During update '''the old versions of the packages may be erased without any warning messages'''. <br /> To avoid this situation you can update a packages manually via the rpm tool by execution of both the erase command and the install command sequentially.}} === Actions === # Install a primary version '''N''' of the NetBeans Platform. [[Fedora/How_To/Install_NetBeans_Platform| How to install...]] # A command for the next step depends on a secondary version. #* In a case, if a secondary version is lesser than the already installed primary version, e.g. the secondary version is 6.5, and primary version is 6.7.1, <br /> i.e 6.5 < 6.7.1, then the following rpm command with the option --oldpackage should be used: <pre># rpm -ivh --oldpackage $NETBEANS_PLATFORM_PACKAGE_FILE</pre> where $NETBEANS_PLATFORM_PACKAGE_FILE is a desired NetBeans Platform binary RPM package file. #* Otherwise, if a secondary version is greater than the already installed primary version, e.g. the secondary version is 6.8, and primary version is 6.7.1, <br /> i.e 6.8 > 6.7.1, then the rpm command with the option --oldpackage should be used. [[Fedora/How_To/Install_NetBeans_Platform/RPM_Package_Manager|How to install...]] {{information|The step 2 can be repeated against each binary package of a version of the NetBeans Platform which you want to additionally install.}} [[Category:Fedora]]
