On geodata.telascience.org I have installed a series of well
known software packages into /usr/local/, a list is here:

http://wiki.osgeo.org/index.php/Geodata_processing_at_telascience.org#Installed_Software

I guess that $HOME should not be used since this is an
NFS home.

But I am not the admin there...

Please (someone) add the policy to our wiki page:

thanks
Markus
