There are much better package managers for that. Try Nix or GNU Guix.

  Can I get one of these to manage packages installed to /home in Ubuntu?

    Do you mean install packages to your user's homedir or to use the package manager on a system where you do not have root access?

      Both. For example even on my own laptop I would like to keep the admin user's e.g. python and python imaging library as the system python and my general work user's python as the version that works best with the latest numpy-scipy stack and ITK etc.
