Rather than trying to force macOS to support package management, developers should be containerizing their environments where possible with docker/podman.

The best package manager for macOS is Docker with an Alpine container. Not ruby scripts with git as a backend and questionable permissions.

Does that work well for libraries that you use during software development? Or do you develop inside the container? What if you use two libraries and each has to live in its own container?
