# ./configure –with-qt=no –prefix=/usr/local/encap/GLE-4.1.1
and leave out the DESTDIR specification and the moving of subdirectories?

The programs should look for their own files in their own /usr/local/encap subdirectory, not in /usr/local, I think. If they would look in /usr/local, they would find the files of the currently installed version, while you can also execute other versions directly from /usr/local/encap.

Other programs that use the files should look in /usr/local, not in /usr/local/encap, so they will just use the currently installed version via the symlinks.

I’ll try to remember next time I need to keep two versions of the same software coexisting…
