I think you have this exactly backwards. It's easy enough to provide a repo for yum or apt. What's hard is interoperating with multiple slightly- different OSes or distros. I think this would be equally hard with, or without, a package manager. -- Steve -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
