I'm not sure that it is a problem in Python more than other languages. It might look worse because many Python projects use tools such as CUDA, which are notoriously dependent on the specific OS, architecture, method of installation etc. But that same issue will exist in most languages - if you're linking against CUDA, you will sometimes have problems with the package installation. Particularly if you try to run the code on a different OS, CPU architecture, using a different GPU, etc. I don't think it really has anything to do with Python. It just happens that most people doing work that depends on tricky packages such as CUDA also happen to be using Python.
