Hello,

I would like to install the latest version of Local in my Ubuntu Linux computer. However, I already have a LAMP environment up and running with virtual hosts and some WP sites.

So the question is, will Local make changes to my current localhost environment that may affect Appache and PHP?

Any insights are greatly appreciated.
