This is actually a common problem for scientific computing departments that have to provide numerous different versions of applications to serve the demands of a large number of users maybe even in heterogeneous environments. For these scenarios it is a very well established approach to use some sort of software management system independently from the distribution. Environment modules [1] are probably one of the most commonly used in computing departments.
