Maybe I'm not a 'normal user' :-)  Actually, on my system /opt is a
separate hard drive and I setup as read/write for myself.  That way,
if I want to reinstall the Linux OS (new release) all my work is safe
and I can wipe the OS drive without worries.  Oh, I normally backup my
$HOME directory as well, just in case.


If you want a custom install, use 'make install'.
The binary packages will try to follow the standards.

I have never installed from a binary package.  I always build from the SVN code.
