I wouldn't bet against a regular package manager existing in the near future. We've seen this story with Go :P


I'd still say Go doesn't have a "package manager". The dependencies are fetched, cached & built as you need it, but there's nothing comparable to "npm i"/"npm uninstall", dpkg/rpm/apk/etc, as such. If you want, you can just import example.com/foo/bar in your source, and the rest is just reproducability (version & hash) and caches.
