My impression of Conda is that it’s more suited to Windows/Mac
environments which lack native package management. For example, I
don’t see a package for Conda under Debian -- surely something as
useful as that is made out to be, would be supported. But it’s not.

The most complex piece of third-party Python-based code that I install
is Jupyter, and that goes quite nicely into a virtualenv maintained
with pip.
