Except doesn't Ubuntu entirely break this by putting packaged files in /usr/local? I've always use /opt for this purpose.
Then there's stow, which just works nicely.
To be honest, using the Arch Build System and quickly building my own packages beats all of this.
- viraptor 14y agoI don't believe Ubuntu does that. Can you provide some verifiable examples?
- jasomill 14y agoI use /opt/ld/{bin,sbin, ...} myself, on the grounds that it's short, yet just confusing enough to be unattractive to future filesystem standardizers. By sheer coincidence, it's now a backronym[1]. [1] http://lagrangiandesign.com/ http://lagrangiandesign.com/
- jayferd 14y agoTry "$HOME/.local". I don't think anyone's building packages that put things there.
