Don't all languages, that have this kind of community developed packages, have the same problem? I expect golang, npm and python to have similar issues. Python has less issues because they have a bigger standard library but if you want to do anything advanced you need third party packages.

I feel like most of these issues stem from the very young age of Rust (2015 -> v1.0). Give it a few years and these problems will stabilize as the long term crates will survive and the short term will grow stale.

Golang doesn't because all packages are namespaces by domain name (and more often that not that domain namespace ja GitHub which has its own further "org" namespacing)
