That's the directory where it goes if you *don't* use "--global": the 
vendor directory of the current project.

The "--global" documentation refers to COMPOSER_HOME as the location it 
uses, which is documented here: 
https://getcomposer.org/doc/03-cli.md#composer-home It boils down to (I 
think) "~/.composer/vendor/bin/phpcs"

You could also just create a composer.json file in /usr/share somewhere 
and run "composer install" there. You could then make a symlink from 
/usr/bin/phpcs to wherever the executable is, and it would be in every 
user's default path as well.
