"This is great, but sometimes I think that python needs a new package manager from scratch"

Ha, that's what I came here to say!

Or better - a new packaging paradigm.

Maybe it's extremely uncool to say ... but I think Java still has the best packaging paradigm of all languages. Jars rule. Of course 'gradle' is kind of a confusing mess so they don't have dependencies worked out very well ...

Nevertheless I do feel that Python's packaging and dependency/versioning woes create a much bigger systematic problem than many realize.

Kudos to the author though ...
