[jira] [Commented] (NETBEANS-2803) Installer doesn't value given install path correctly

["Alessandro Falappa (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-2803?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16880374#comment-16880374 ] 

Alessandro Falappa commented on NETBEANS-2803:
----------------------------------------------

I think I understood why it is that way.

After installation in _<dest_folder>_ you have all the installed files in _<dest_folder>_/netbeans and the uninstaller shell script in _<dest_folder>_/uninstall.sh.

I don't know if the uninstaller shell script can be safely moved around or it is tied to the installation location.

>    Affects Versions: 11.1
>         Environment: Ubuntu 18.04 64 bit

> I said the installer (as root) to install into:
>     /opt/netbeans/11.1/
> but it installed into:
>     /opt/netbeans/11.1/netbeans/
> And please remember https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=196072
> When using or even testing several NB versions, It's better to have them in one root folder "netbeans", to not flood the OS programs folder so much.
> Would also be convenient:
