Packages which install files outside of prefix without me telling them 
to do so are quite offensive to me.  It is really bad if they 
overwrite part of my operating system or put files in places which 
might not be properly handled with the next OS upgrade or when copying 
files to a new system.

There are quite a few systems other than Linux in the world.
