Conda: a cross-platform package manager for any binary distribution
summary
Conda claims to solve Python packaging by treating Python and C libraries the same, shipping only binaries with metadata in an index and using a solver that resolves dependencies before download. It builds packages with conda-build, stores extracted tar.bz2 packages in a cache and installs via hard links save disk space into isolated environments that track revisions and can be exported or reverted. Repositories publish with conda index and serve via a simple HTTP server.
