Guix and spack could also work.

I guess there are several requirements we need

1. Support for all major OS/architecture combinations
2. Easy to build for rare OS/architecture combinations
3. Possible to install as a non-root user
4. Binaries are available for non-root

AFAIK, there's no package manager that has all 4 above and we will have to 
pick which
requirements are more important than others.


I believe 1/3/4 are the most important and conda-forge suppports them.
And there's also the very important:

5. Its relevance in the Python dev world.

... where conda-forge is the only choice (other than PyPI).
