What if you have an old version of glib-c on your machine? There’s always going to be odd edge cases where things break, no matter what language you build your tooling, but I’ve installed thousands of Python packages on CentOS7, Ubuntu, OSX, Debian via pip and haven’t had issues. Ergo, I disagree with the writer. This article is basically saying “things are complex, complexity is hard, so don’t do complex things”. On that point I agree. If you don’t have the time to invest in the tech, don’t build unsupported systems. But don’t throw Python under the bus because you don’t have time to build a proper package.
