@Sandra No idea for debian but rust and go are the ugliest in gentoo repos.

You end up with the list of dependencies being generated from the lockfile and stashed into a variable.
There is no such thing as go or rust librairies from a packager point of view.
Good luck when any Go or Rust library needs to be patched for any reason, specially stability and security.

Python and its venvs are just as bad.

@Sandra I don't use pip, it's horribly incomplete as a package manager and venvs are an horrible workaround.
Also has an history of doing poorly with BSDs and musl-based systems.

I stick to system packages and PYTHON_PATH.
Feels a bit like a caveman when I explain it to some people but it does exactly like I want.

And for my own software I ended up switching to perl, stable language with a nicely standard buildsystem. And it's specific package manager is just an optional alternative to the system one.
