@uecker@mastodon.social @wolf480pl@mstdn.io @amonakov@mastodon.gamedev.place Distro package managers fail for other languages because they are only built for C

It's fucking miserable to reuse code in C - you either vendor it (which is shit), or hope to hell that the code you want to reuse is common/simple enough to be included in most distros, or otherwise your program will be a massive pain for end users to install.

There are a good bunch of C libraries that are better packaged as a part of Python libraries than by themselves in distros.
