Keeping the tons of packages and just overwriting could work, too.
Assuming two versions of libs are provided, this shouldn't cause an
issue.

Anyway, as soon as something compiled by yourself gets upgarded by
repositories, or a dependency of something you compiled, you could run
into trouble. Fortunately Ubuntu stays with major versions of libs,
usually only dot versions should change, so you shouldn't expect soname
issues, but OTOH you're using Mint and not Ubuntu.

You could hold/lock packages. Note, a package locked by Synaptic might
not be hold by apt.
