If you could use Debian or something based on it (e.g. Ubuntu) then this
is how it works by default. You can have as many different "major"
(i.e. 8.2, 8.3 and 8.4) versions installed and running at the same time
as you want.
Building from source isn't too hard though, it's the keeping it up to
date that's more of a fiddle.
