What I now do is test a version on a different system than my main desktop.

For my Debian-based systems, I now uninstall LO before I install the new 
version.  This solves some integration issues that sometimes come up and 
the fact that sometimes my systems think I still want to run the 
previous version, say 4.0.3, when I just installed 4.0.4.

I run Ubuntu 12.04 with MATE desktop and Win7 [in a few flavors].  
Ubuntu on my main desktop [5 TB in 3 drives] and two dual booting 
laptops, plus a couple of other systems that are used only for specific 
functions- like media streaming or demoing.
