IDF 6.0.2 EIM installer 0.17.1 STILL scatter files around

[esp32.damiano]

Please, we do NOT care if we download few MB of tools, there is NO NEED to "save space"

What we need is a RELIABLE way to manage the provided tools + IDF

when doing a idf upgrade becomes a lottery of broken things, the fun disappear FAST

new idf ?

dump ALL the required files, tools, examples, docs, whatever UNDER the directory I tell EIM

easy, clear, simple

no "hidden .espressif directory dumped around in home" really, why ?

thank you

Great, EIM just screwed my istallation by messing with the Espressif IDE

it is even stuck on the "finalizing installation"

shit
