If you are short of memory, you don't actually need to waste the memory
to run it either, you can quite easily run it from a chroot (you may
have to sort dbus out) and assuming the software doesn't require a newer
kernel or do silly things with dbus. lsof is handy to shut all the
things that have started down after.

I've done that before as I had issues getting webm encoding up and
running.

You should still be able to update it from the chroot too for security
reasons, but may have to remember to do so!
