IIRC /opt is designed to contain third-party software, mainly distributed
in binary form. A distribution should not install any file into
/usr/local and /opt.
We can modify KDE to fit in the regular filesystem structure and
we have not to rely on the authors doing it correctly. So I believe
tolonuga should do his best to use correct paths.
