New submission from Alexander Dreyer <adre...@gmx.de>:

At the Sage Days 24 coding sprint the issue came up, that the setup.py install 
programs of several python-based tools pick the prefix-setting from 
~/.pydistutils.cfg. 
http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/9536

In order to get this right, we suggest to introduce the environment variable 
DISTUTILS_NO_USER_CFG. It can be used like the --no-user-cfg commandline option 
supported by distutils.

Best regards
