I am aware that this might not be the right place to ask, but here it
goes anyway:

Can anyone explain to me why python-pip installs requirements for
livestreamer in /usr/local/ ? This is against FHS and Debian policies
about what /usr/local/ may be used for. I used to work in an environment
where /usr/local/ was an NFS mount to which clients had no write access,
so any attempt by the package manager, maintenance scripts or for
example puppet to place files in /usr/local/ would fail. This would have
made maintaining packages like livestreamer very cumbersome. I hope this
will get addressed in the future?
