I tend to try out many open source apps/packages
I make a separate directory for each application in /usr/local so they are isolated from each other.
You mean /usr/local or /usr/local/src ? I would create new directory under /usr/local/src and put source there. Please correct me if I am wrong.
This brings one more confusion: - whether to use /usr space or /opt .
Any comments?
You can also use KVM to set up virtual machines to be able to test and then drop the entire VM if you don't like it. That will keep your main system completely clean.
