JETBRAINS GATEWAY: No option "Customize install path"

I try to use remote development and I don't want to use `~/.cache/JetBrains/RemoteDev/dist` on the remote server because 2Go is needed. 

On https://www.jetbrains.com/help/pycharm/remote-development-a.html#gateway  it's says 

By default, the downloaded PyCharm is located in the following folder on the remote server: ~/.cache/JetBrains/RemoteDev/dist. However, you can change it and install PyCharm into a custom location with the following steps:

Click Other options and select the Customize install path option.

Unfortunatly for me, "Customize install path" option doesn't appear.

I am having a similar issue. The folder that "~" symlinks to on the server I am trying to do remote development on is wiped after each ssh session, so I need to use a different location. However, this option is just missing!

I'm also having trouble with where the JetBrains folder is located. It would be really great if you could set where you want the JetBrains files to be cached, like the project directory, and it could even be in this window, rather than the .cache folder being forced.
