30-day evaluation license with Quartus Prime Lite 16.0 ??

It appears from your description as if you somehow installed not the lite version but the full version

Indeed, so it seems. However, I just checked the installation log, which is attached. From that I gather the following:

1. I actually installed Quartus Prime Lite on August 12; I downloaded it on August 10, which nonetheless appears to be the starting date for the daily countdown;

2. The log says that both Quartus Prime Help and ModelSim ASE (Free) are installed for the Altera 16.0.0.211 Lite Edition;

3. The installation of Quartus Prime Lite 16.0.0.211 automatically started that of Quartus Prime Update 16.0.2.222 as a follow-up.

I had a look at the quartus-16.0.2.222-linux-install.log file, produced by the aforementioned Quartus Prime Update installation, but it gives no useful information; it's much longer than the attached quartus-16.0.0.211-linux-install.log, but just because it contains a long sequence of "Unpacking files" lines. Here are its condensed contents:Log started 08/12/2016 at 19:16:38

Now, perhaps the update turned my Quartus Prime Lite installation into a Quartus Prime Standard one? As a matter of fact, the license.txt file in my /opt/altera_lite/16.0/licenses directory is that of a standard edition license, and it refers to a "Checkout License", that is, a time-limited license.

I am puzzled, because, if the automatic update installs a time-limited license, then I see no way to escape that...
