I use a modified version of the Gobo hierarchy (pretty much just
keeping programs in /Programs and symlinking them to root), and I
think it's a definite improvement on using a package manager or
installing to root. It's stupid simple to set up, the shell script I
use to symlinking everything is ~20 lines.
The only issue is when some programs don't play nice with symlinks. I
believe mdocml's man throws a fit. But other than that, I like it.
