Please give us a bit more than just your opinion.

Why do you see mdev as a temporary solution?

And this part was not about the movement to /usr at all, so why do you
suggest another movement here? And while you answer that, please also
tell us, why you want to migrate packages to a different install
location without a need.

They install and work fine, so just keep it this way. I did not see any
argument to move packages around, that work well and have no issue with
their current install location.
