You can have a decentralised package manager that has support for a centralised package listing. This is what Nimble (Nim's package manager) does, there is a packages repo[1] which simply maps package names to Git/Hg repo URLs. So you can easily depend on URLs or package names. Of course, even this can be considered decentralised since different package repos can be used easily. This is especially useful for private packages. 1 - https://github.com/nim-lang/packages https://github.com/nim-lang/packages
