I would agree with Stephan's suggestion, and suggest using Software
Collections, as well. One of the Scientific Linux maintainers, Bonnie
King, gave a talk on using Software Collections at our GNU/Linux User
Group a few years ago. The slides are here [1], and they include some
SL-specific commands to get Software Collections installed & some info
on using them.

Cheers,

Jim
