- bastardoperator 2y agoSo what? Do you complain when apt, yum, dnf, pacman, ports, or any other package management system does a download? I bet you don't, so it's not really a usable argument. Secondly, yeah, not tainting my systems OS and system paths is a good thing and opt/ from the filesystem perspective is the absolute right place to put add on packages. "The /opt/ directory is normally reserved for software and add-on packages that are not part of the default installation"
