I wish that linux installs were more self contained though. Directly dumping everything into a global folder is a bit messy and you can only ever have one version of a shared library installed unless each version is uniquely named (a problem which Windows 3.1 also had).

I wish that packages got their own folders as standard, contained all the required libraries and had unique "internal" names like java packages to avoid conflicts. Very much like what Android and Nix do.

It's a bit of a pain for the package makers and some may call it bloat but there's less chance of non-main-repo programs forcing you to connect to their own repo and potentially creating a franken distro if it's not been updated (or has been updated too far!)
