/opt's official meaning is completely lost on developers/packagers (depending on who's at fault), every single directory in my/optbelongs to standalone software that should just be put into either/usr/libor/usr/sharewith some symlinks or scripts into/usr/bin.I've also seen creating there deployment or configuration stack of your choice.
