Yeah, but you were refuting someone pointing out why that was with the difference between a later green field system in a smaller problem space that could learn from earlier systems vs one with a lot of extra use cases pulling in different directions, complications and legacy to overcome. The competing 3rd party Python projects for packaging early on were learning a lot of lessons the hard way that both left behind legacy to clean up and paved the way for other languages to skip ahead all that usually with a single blessed solution.
Of course a well resourced language that didn't have to worry about native OS/distro integration and only started solving dependency distribution and management later after learning from others is going to have a better system. It would be a total surprise if it didn't.
- jshen 3y agoThere is no excuse for the state of python dependency management. Every similar language has figured this out.
