You should do the following :

1. Install Performer 2.0 the normal way.

2. Install Performer 1.2 under a separate directory tree like that :

        a. mkdir /perf1.2
        b. inst -f /CDROM/dist -r /perf1.2
           or
           swmgr -f /CDROM/dist -r /perf1.2

3. Use an env. variable like PFROOT that will point either to / or to /perf1.2

   On your compiles you can have the include path (-I) using $PFROOT.
   On runtime, you should set your $LD_LIBRARY_PATH using $PFROOT.

Very simple and efficient. Worked for me for a long time. Thanks src.
