Hello Edward & Community,
I'm trying to understand the various installation options mentioned in
Leo's documentation better.
As you know from my previous post, I almost always rely on the latest
released stable version of Leo installed via pip from PyPI into a dedicated
PyVE.
Today I tried to install a new separate Leo-devel instance using the method
'Installation from source (all platforms)' [1] into a new PyVE.
I succeeded to install this new instance w/o problems - and - I was able to
start this new instance for the first time as well.
*Please also note that before I started this new instance, I did explicitly
close the instance of Leo-stable running at that time!*
The reason why I'm asking this question is that in the logs of the new
instance I receive the following messages:
###

try to use data from the other, currently closed, instance of Leo-stable
(6.2.1)
Asking my initial question once more, now hopefully even a bit more precise:
*Is it safe to sequentially run two or more instances of different Leo
versions on the same machine?*
With kind regards,
Viktor
