What is the best way to deploy a self compiled library, which already exists as an older version in the official repository, to multiple CentOS 6.5 workstations?

  • Use the upstream rpm specification (from Fedora) to create a newer rpm

  • Compile, install to separate folder and either:

    • copy to /usr/local/{lib,include,...} on each workstation
    • copy to /usr/local/companyname/{lib,include,...} on each workstation
    • use a nfs share with a central lib location
  • something else

Creating a binary package for your system (in your case, rpm) is always the best choice, if possible. –  Faheem Mitha Aug 18 '14 at 13:34
