Actually, it is a bad thing. Package managers specialized for one
language are convenient for the developers heavily involved in that
language, but for everybody else they are a terrible thing.
Oh, I can see your point from your reasoning. I can amend my comment to
'It doesn't have to be a bad thing to use a separate package manager.'
It all depends on the use case and the goals. If the scope of these are
on a stable Debian system, you're totally right. If the OP, or any other
Debian user, is developing to contribute primarily to Python users and
the Python community, pip makes more sense. Whether a developer is
maintaining good update habits from there is largely a matter of how
they learned.
