So far I have compiled libtorrent, short of actually doing make install since that is where it would clash with my system packages I imagine. The point is that both of these things are newer than my system's packages, so I need to pull them both and build rtorrent against that libtorrent version. The project has a other dependencies of course, but in particular it has one by the same author: libtorrent. The project I'm referring to is rtorrent. My question is general as I've wondered this before with other projects, but this particular instance drove me to ask this question. What I'm wondering is if there is a suggested workflow for managing this situation, where I want to keep my system-installed packages but also compile and run the version I'm developing. What I mean is, I intend to work a bit on an open source project which I already have installed through my system packages.
