> For C++, the system package manager (yum, apt, pacman) seems sufficient to install most anything I've ever needed The system package manager installs globally and prefers dynamic linking. This makes it generally impossible to distribute software reliably without packaging it for the system package manager being used. Dependencies should be local to the project and prefer static linking to avoid deployment/distribution errors.
