just funny OT things.

That's something unrelated funny, while OTOH it's not really funny.

The problem is that I don't remember it and when I google for it, it
seems to be that I confused it with something else. IIRC there where
plans to make it easier to install software independent of dependencies.
Perhaps a misunderstanding or wrong remembrance. I guess each software
should get it's own directory, similar to /opt/software_foo. AFAIK there are two projects working at a new
file
system hierarchy to make it easier to install software, what ever this
means.
Which projects do you mean?
For a while I fooled around with Gobo Linux[1], around for
about a decade, whose developer makes a good technical case
for a modified file system hierarchy[2, 3]. It hasn't
collected a huge mindshare.
