How does the lfs recommend handling large application packages that need to have multiple concurrent incompatible versions? It is not obvious from the standard what would be the best course of action.
Is it recommended/permitted to put these in /opt/kde2, /opt/kde3, /opt/gnome, etc.? kde in particular is a poor candidate for the /usr hierarchy since it contains editable configuration files all over the place, and the /usr hierarchy is supposed to be read-only. Placing these packages in /opt does mean, of course, that other smaller independant packages in the /usr hierarchy will be dependant on kde/gnome packages in the /opt hierarchy. Is this considered bad form? What is your opinion?
