No, it's not that simple.

1. We don't want to depend on you choosing to install things correctly.
It's hard to debug the problems if you get it wrong.
2. You could only choose to install the entire thing in parallel. But
that's no good if just one library has an extra version.

This is not going to change. You should generally avoid ever typing in
these paths yourself. That's just an invitation to human error anyway.
