On all platforms, the "personal" file can be temporarily disabled by passing the `--no-user-cfg` option.

Strictly speaking, the system-wide configuration file lives in the directory where the Distutils are installed; under Python 1.6 and later on Unix, this is as shown. For Python 1.5.2, the Distutils will normally be installed to :file:`{prefix}/lib/python1.5/site-packages/distutils`, so the system configuration file should be put there under Python 1.5.2.

On Unix, if the :envvar:`HOME` environment variable is not defined, the user's home directory will be determined with the :func:`getpwuid` function from the standard :mod:`pwd` module. This is done by the :func:`os.path.expanduser` function used by Distutils.

I.e., in the current directory (usually the location of the setup script).

(See also note (1).) Under Python 1.6 and later, Python's default "installation prefix" is :file:`C:\\Python`, so the system configuration file is normally :file:`C:\\Python\\Lib\\distutils\\distutils.cfg`. Under Python 1.5.2, the default prefix was :file:`C:\\Program Files\\Python`, and the Distutils were not part of the standard library---so the system configuration file would be :file:`C:\\Program Files\\Python\\distutils\\distutils.cfg` in a standard Python 1.5.2 installation under Windows.
168
On Windows, if the :envvar:`HOME` environment variable is not defined, :envvar:`USERPROFILE` then :envvar:`HOMEDRIVE` and :envvar:`HOMEPATH` will be tried. This is done by the :func:`os.path.expanduser` function used by Distutils.
