No it is not. Home only for user things. Srv for "world". See links in my other post.
Furthermore, I find it extremely annoying when I install a software as a pact and then does not run at all and I have to read the installation instructions of the developers. Then I do not need a package.
Great, then you are not even a user affected by the proposed change.
of course. I use nextcloud myself and want to keep this in srv. Incidentally, I'm a maintener bn nextcloud and one of those who makes sure that the package is up to date and also updates every update without any action. which is not the case with many web applications.
(Even if something lives in /usr, it can be made to behave as if it were present in /srv as far as a web server is concerned. kopano-webapp.spec does that for example.)
and that bothers me. I have to look under a hundred folder that of kopano. under srv there are nextcloud and two or three others and ready
PS: Even if that does not belong in this thread. I think there are more important things / problem to solve in openSUSE. For example, Ancient packages and libraries, just because they are in SLE. :-(
Well, if you think those topics are important, you are free to work on them, just as Stasiek is free to work on issues he considers important.
and what shall I do? all attempts to bring new package versions or current versions of libraries and applications in leap 15.1 failed. always on the grounds that comes from sle. more attempts were dismissed, which even once went almost so far that I should be blocked. Since then I do not do anything for leap. As a "small" packager and user at opensuse I have no management at all to do this. I am synonymous with stability, which is why I also use leap and tumblweed. if that goes so far, the desktop programs nei a new leap vetsion are clearly slt, then that goes too far. opensuse itself with such old desktop apps even no favor. see also the comments on the web. Among other things, it has never been so quiet on the web at 15.1. I wonder why?
I think your missing the point of Leap, Leap is meant to be stable and boring, its meant to keep the same or a very similar base system for most of its lifecycle, it intentionally doesn't get the newest everything stuff is only upgraded if there is a really good reason, this is what some openSUSE users want. For people who want the latest stuff tumbleweed is a far better option.
