Tim Kersten <tim.kers...@lincor.com> added the comment:
Such an option would be useful indeed.
An idea, though perhaps it's overkill, would be to show the current values of
the options causing problems, specifically if they come from a config file or
environment variable.
i.e. when setup.cfg contains home=/somewhere
$ python setup.py install --prefix=/tmp
running install
error: must supply either home or prefix/exec-prefix -- not both
setup.cfg: home=/somewhere
