This is not only an issue with so-called leveldb. It happens a lot
that two packages you need request different versions of the same
library, not always co-installable. Mostly if you go beyond "stable".
Or even if you got stuck on oldstable and try to install some simple
new package.

And this is a good amount of the "dependency hell" when it comes to
Desktop users.

So, I think that having some way of installing multiple versions of
the same library would be a useful feature. Heck, even windows does
that in (some) right way.

Aptitude would, of course, take care of the not-anymore-needed versions.

So, forget Bitcoin for a moment and think: is this something it would
be worth having for Devuan as a whole?
