For some of the problems that Node.js and JS at large have with a centralized package manager, I for one am very happy that it's not in the python situation. 100% of the packages I've tried to install in the last 3+ years are simply `npm install PKG`.

It's 2020, but the python community still has not converged to a small set of sane solutions. It seems to me that Ruby, PHP, JS, and Rust communities have solved the problem.
I'm only familiar with Python, Javascript and Rust. It seems to me that Rust is the only one that has "solved" this problem. I dont think there are any real Python devs who thinks dependency management is solved. However, why would you claim Javascript has a good solution? The inconsistencies between node and web dev is odd at best. Babel compilation is annoying and slow. Are we even standardized on webpack yet? Can…
Maybe a noob question, but how come they are pioneers? Weren't there languages with package systems before Python and JS?

Do popular Node packages rely on C and Fortran?
People always get up in arms about this, but as someone who has used Python as her daily driver for years it's really... never been this serious of an issue for me? I have used virtualenv/venv and pip to install dependencies for years and years, since I was a teen hacking around with Python. Packaging files with setup.py doesn't really seem that hard. I've published a few packages on pypi for my own personal use and…
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Hasn't it? pypi is really the de-facto package index, Pipenv/Poetry/Conda are all venv handlers (using the standard venv tools) + dependency graph, and using pip which is standard as well. I would call this a small set of solutions (3), and they are all sane (any will do, just pick one).
Inviting the question: why don't the core devs have a serious bakeoff and bring that functionality into the core distro?
I don't even see what problems they solve, it seems like you end up with more problems using them.
Anyone installs Conda on my shit I hit the roof... I sympathize with the individual but cannot tolerate the act.
Every attempt to solve this problem in Python seems to eventually end up in a pretty terrible place. Pipenv got off to a great start but got slower and slower to the point that it was more painful to use than not. Poetry (which is still my preferred option) started off with something seemingly beautifully thought through, and very fast too. But after only a few version updates, it seems to be hitting the same problem…

All I was trying is to combine tensorflow lite with opencv IIRC. Just look at the installation instructions:
- https://www.tensorflow.org/install/pip
- https://www.tensorflow.org/lite/guide/python
