I can change the ownership, but every time after a reboot it is owned by root again, with permissions 755.
Does anyone know where this is set, and/or how I can make /usr/local/bin permanently make writable for a user?
Why don't you put your scripts in ~/bin? That's your location for scripts.
After many years with another distro, I started to give OpenSUSE a try. All those years I had my downloaded programs in /usr/local or /opt, and scripts and links to those programs in /usr/local/bin.
Same here
The fact that they should be put into /bin instead, is completely new to me.
If you do that, then why have /usr/local/bin at all?
