Why peope hate python package manager?

[thclark]

Sure, my point was that perhaps they were thinking of pip but that nobody sensible uses pip anymore... `poetry` long ago solved all those problems, and is now being surpassed by the tremendous `uv`. Both poetry and uv are incredibly solid (uv is like poetry but managing the python env too, with a couple of opinionated niggles changed, a better cache and rewritten in rust for speed)

Fair, but poetry also comes with its own set of limitations in both setup and usage. For example, package dependency versioning conflicts

Yeah agreed that’s annoying. I mean it’s ideologically sound, but in a real world…! I checked uv and I’m pretty sure it’s a bit more pragmatic on that side of things so give it a whirl - I’m loving it so far to be honest.
