You must install them using the --multi-version (-m) option of easy_install.

If the last one you install is installed with -m, you'll be able to 
use whichever you want, but you will always have to use require() to 
import *any* of them.

If you want to be able to use any version, any time, then you need to 
package the code that's doing that with its own setup.py, 
requirements, and entry point scripts.  Such scripts can use whatever 
version they want, even if not installed with -m.  See the setuptools 
manual for more information on this.
