<p>Hi all. <br>I do have a question regarding remotes, runtimes, and installing for single user vs the whole system. <br>From what I see, currently, things are completely isolated. If I install a remote, and a runtime, to the whole system, and I try to install and application as user only, the application don't recognize the installed runtime (and, actually, it cannot even be installed using the that same remote). So, it seems to me that actually, everything must be duplicated for --user and --system. <br></p></blockquote><div><br></div><div>That shouldn't happen. The per user installed app should find the runtime from the system. The other way around however (per user runtime, system app) will not work.

Installing lots of binaries in the users homedir is unexpected for things like backup programs, or sharing the homedir between machines, etc. I think of --user as a more corner-case usecase for debugging/testing or just weird situations.</div><pre>
