Hey Jason, pep8 handles discovery and parsing of config files for flake8. Looking at what pep8 tries to find, your options are ~/.config/pep8, ./tox.ini, and ./setup.cfg. As for why using --config doesn't work, I haven't tried that but that would also be a bug found in pep8. I'll see if I can reproduce that though.
