>You could of course use a platform that doesn't depend on OS dependent binaries (like the JVM) and a package manager that likes ad-hoc and easily created repositories and that has lots of plugins available (Maven, or derivates like Gradle, SBT or Leiningen).

I don't think being locked into the JVM is a very good solution. Java libraries can depend on other non-Java components.
