   If you read the FHS "spec", (it's there somewhere), you see that /opt is an   
   allowed exception for special cases. There is a reason why I never did in   
   the standard way while all other software that I created uses standard FHS.   
      
   When you try to put it in FHS style, you will find out why it's not a good   
   idea to try to use FHS.   
      
   In the manual or changelog there is some not about this too, I don't   
   remember where exactly as the decision was made over 10 years ago.
