software installation - How to install Openshot 2.0 side by side with 1.4.3?

I'd like to install Openshot 2.0 separately from 1.4.3 (say in opt, for example).

I'd tried running the appImage but it doesn't work due to incompatible libraries (weird for a self-contained application, I know).

As of recently (since the time of posting the question) Openshot 2.0.x can now be installed (via the libopenshot ppa) side by side with 1.4.x.
