I am wondering why directories such as /usr
and /usr/local/
are owned and created by root. Usually I am logged in as a normal user and I want to store programs that I personally use in these dirs. For example the Android Studio are stored there. Whenever, I need to make an update or to make any kind of change, permission are not granted because I am not logged in as root.
The directory name "usr" already implies that (normal) user based programs are supposed to be there.
Didn't I get the concept behind this directory?
