I would suggest running:

    ./bin/raco pkg config -i  --set default-scope installation

Setting the default scope to `installation` will cause commands like `raco pkg 
install` to install packages in the "pkgs" directory of your self-contained 
installation, rather than putting packages in a user-specific place by default.

(The more general `--scope` option is tricky to use correctly: I would think of 
it as a hook for higher-level tools.)
