Rust has and “advantage” here that it’s not generally shipped with your distro’s package manager. I think my biggest problem with this article is that the distros put Python there in the first place, and all of them apply patches to make Python work how they want it. And when it doesn’t work, it’s Python’s fault…? I mean yeah Python can definitely do something to make distributing Python easier, but it can only do so much without distros’ direct involvement. I’ll add that most of Linux distro packaging contributors are generally very nice people, understand the problem at hand, and are very open to collaboration. But sometimes you see this kind of “it’s all your fault” complaints and it’s doing exactly the opposite of helping the cause.
