> Can someone make the case for distributing python packages at the distro level to me? Especially scientific software for data analysis? As a matter of principle, I prefer to avoid software from non-curated repositories like pip and the like. Installing the debian-provided scipy and numpy is more than enough for me. I don't understand what's so special about python that needs its own "package manager" when the distro-provided one is already good. If I need something, I install it using "apt install", regardless of what language it is written in.
