The first couple of days with a language can be painful. People have trouble getting python libraries to work too. Maven is really quite well thought out and solid.

- chimeracoder 14y ago> People have trouble getting python libraries to work too Aside from developing on Windows with C extension libraries, those are increasingly rare. Pip + virtualenv works wonders, and the latter has been folded into the most recent official release of CPython (3.3), so it's now officially the right way to do Python package management, as opposed to simply the de facto approach. As someone who's had to use both, I will say that my experience with even the most basic, functionality in Java's package management is a nightmare, whereas learning how to use the same basic functionality in pip/virtualenv was so easy, I wondered why I'd been putting it off so long.
