Re: Can I get apt to install packages in /opt? (Victor Churchill)
Thanks, Victor.  I took the spirit of your advice and tried a DIY implementation for the first application.  I just created a .desktop entry in /usr/share/applications which stated that the Exec is in /opt/...

I've also taken an image from the application website and used gimp to create a png for the icon.

So far, so good.
