I have installed multiple julia version with juliaup. I was wondering where these are stored by default (on linux). I can not seem to find them anywhere.

Isn’t it the same on Windows and Linux? I think it is in `.julia/juliaup/`.

You can introspect this from within Julia.

```julia
help?> Sys.BINDIR
  Sys.BINDIR::String

  A string containing the full path to the directory containing the julia executable.

```

Turns out I was manually defining my `JULIA_DEPOT_PATH` and therefore I missed it.
