Thanks, Shane and Wilbert, for the advice. I got it now and everything
works fine.
Good night,
Simon

This is usually what I do. I use Frescobaldi as a front end and then I
can install multiple versions of lilypond in what ever folders I feel
like and just use the edit/preferences/lilypond preferences where you
can change the default Lilypond version which is easier than monkeying
around with moving directories or links. Just make sure it points to
the usr/bin/lilypond of what ever version you are wishing to use at
the moment.

Hello,
I recently exchanged Windows for Lubuntu on my computer. Lilypond 2.18.0 is
already installed and I want to add 2.19.3, but when I run the installing
file, it requires that I uninstall the "old" versions before installing the
new one. However, I want to have both at hand, as it seems to me is common
use (correct me if I'm mistaken).
So first, is it a good idea just to rename the existing directory into
/lilypond_2.18.0 and thus escape the problem? And second, wouldn't it be
handy to provide for multiple lily versions installed at the same time or at
least make this an easily available option in the installation process (like
--keepold for example)?
Best regards,
Simon
