How can I install MQ binaries in a Ubuntu other path than /opt/mqm

KC talks about variable AMQ_OVERRIDE_EMPTY_INSTALL_PATH set to 1 but how I do specify the install path?

I'm using "apt install" to install it, and its MQ v9.0.5

Thanks!

I found a variety of hits when I searched google for 'install mq ubuntu'

Thanks , I was trying to understand the use for that variable and how to use apt install to a non default path.

And just found the answer to multiple installations using MQ deb packeges:

"Therefore, on a single system, you can have a single version of IBM MQ installed by Debian, or multiple versions of IBM MQ installed by rpm"

my initial question was about MQ install with a *.deb package. With deb package I didn't found and option to install to a path other than the default /op/mqm

I solved this by installing from a MQ*.rpm package, with the following command

rpm -ivh --prefix /opt/mqm90 <mq>.rpm
