I don't know if this is normal or if anyone else does it but I usually either download binaries or compile from source and move the executable to /usr/local/bin/ and create a symlink. Lets me easily switch between versions. I avoid using a package manager for anything where I want control over the version and installation. - curl -fSLJO $RELEASE - tar xvf $DOWNLOAD.tar.gz && cd $DOWNLOAD` - make . - mv $EXECUTABLE /usr/local/bin/$EXECUTABLE-$VERSION` - ln -s /usr/local/bin/$EXECUTABLE-$VERSION /usr/local/bin/$EXECUTABLE - # chmod 750, chown root:$appuser, etc Works great for everything I've tried thus far. Redis, HAproy, Prometheus exporters, and many more. |
