Just a lurker passing by: Personally I'm much less excited about things like pip or node.js packages. While I get their appeal often times you end up with quite a nonses like node.js left-pad issue of year or so ago. In my eyes it promotes a kinda of "shatered into milion pieces" situation. I'm much more keen on how things are in C land - go get stuff yourself :). Which somewhat prevents "dependacny creep".
