I just now proposed a solution there, the only possible one:
-------------------------
There is no way that a second package manager independent of the normal
packaging infra structure (apt here, or rpm, or whatever) can work, because it
will break the main system.
TeX Live Manager is currently only for system trees. THere is a patch in
the dev repository for activating user mode, so that tlmgr can be used
to manage TEXMFHOME, but it has not been worked on since quite some time
(due to myself lacking the time of, I developped the initial version).
So instead of complaining and suggesting useless things that will never happen
due to the way distributions work, you could get your hands dirty and help
coding perl!
