    I non-ironically like this approach for package managers (cargo, gvm, conda, poetry, etc), because I eventually have problems when installing a manager with another manager.

      It’s your system mate, do whatever you want with it :) I’d prefer it if libraries for these systems could be installed similar to C libraries through the system package manager but I guess that train has left the station

        This is not desirable, as requirements for dev environment differs from that of released apps. You often want sandboxing individual projects, which the package manager need not have to do.
