As already stated, a package is created so that you do not have to compile and configure software each time you want to install it. However, With a package the installation point should already be made, however if you really need to you can create a sym link of where it is installing it to a directory on a filesystem that actually has the space.

Hence i wanted to know if it is possible to re-route the packages to some other dirs
