The /gnu/store of my system contains two versions (1.1.1 and 1.2.1) of
Inkscape that are already built (see last two lines below)

I want to run v1.1.1 because I want to do some experiments to test the
performance of these two versions. Preferably, I want to run those two
versions at the same time. If that's not possible, at least I want to be
able to switch between those two versions. How to do this?
