It would be nice to have a user config *directory* for all Python config things, e.g. ~/.python/. Then it'd be natural to drop the ".py" prefix. Without the prefix, people would have a hard time connecting a .distutils.cfg in their home dir with Python.
Python already uses ~/.local for stuff. It should go in there.
You have a point there... we could put the user local config files into ~/.local/lib/python2.6/ and then name it distutils.cfg just like for the system-wide install. -- Marc-Andre Lemburg eGenix.com Professional Python Services directly from the Source (#1, Aug 04 2009)
