You shouldn't have to. It is set by default by vim. In a running vim instance do :echo &runtimepath >> And I don't have a "after" directory in /usr/share/vim/vimfiles/ at the >> moment. Is it something I should create by myself? It doesn't need to exist. And it's certainly useless if empty.

Owned by root does not mean that you can't READ the files. Vim doesn't need to do anything except read them, and it can. I guess I'm confused as to where you installed your plugins. It's typically best to install them in ~/.vim/ rather than system wide
