# Scenario Some users use a custom depot path for Julia using the `JULIA_DEPOT` environmental variable. # Rationale Regardless of the reason, `juliaup` should track custom depot paths to allow flexible configuration and managing of julia versions on customized setups. # Use cases - Self uninstalling of `~/.julia/juliaup` and custom depots e.g. `$JULIA_DEPOT/juliaup` as mentioned in https://github.com/JuliaLang/juliaup/issues/457 - A saved data (maybe as JSON?) of tracked custom depots for users to clean up for uncommon cases such as a broken juliaup installation. - Customized setups where littering the `HOME` directory is not desirable.
