Replying to [comment:5 vbraun]:
> Well `/usr/local/etc/env.d` doesn't sound like a particularly good place
either...
indeed, maybe it's not a good idea to choose /usr/local as the prefix
(i.e. for sage the distibution). but it's consistent.
finally it's the question how much you dislike redundant paths like `$HOME
/sage-xyz/etc/sage` `/opt/sage/etc/sage` or `/tmp/sage/etc/sage`. i expect
that `/opt/sage` will be the most common case for a prefix eventually, the
situation looks very close to http://www.tldp.org/LDP/Linux-Filesystem-
Hierarchy/html/opt.html...
