Being a Debian Developer myself, I have to disagree here. I *wish* I 
could just install everything via the Debian Packaging System, but the 
reality for most relevant Python packages is very different: packages 
are either outdated or do not exist in Debian -- heck, even PIP is 
outdated in a way that you actually have to `pip install -U pip` in 
order to use it properly due to the recent manylinux change.

So at work, were we use Python, we basically use only Debian's minimal 
image and install a naked Python + pip. Then we upgrade pip to make it 
usable and then install every python package via pip.


Cheers,

Bastian
