Custom installation directory
I used to install calibre in linux with a script, which sets:

Code:
export CALIBRE_INSTALL_DIR=/usr/local
before running the actual download and install commands. However, I've just realized that now calibre is ignoring this, and it's installing itself in /opt. The latest installation in /usr/local seems to be from june 21.

Is this an intended change? Can I please have calibre installed back in /usr/local ?
