Because it is a hard problem?
Python has easy_install, pip, anaconda and wheel; virtualenv to isolate packages. Node has npm and yarn (is it resolved?). Ruby gem defines version in code, bundler in Gemfile, Gemfile.lock; vendor/, rvm gemset, BUNDLE_PATH to isolate packages. Even developers can't find right answer.
Because it matters?
Package management is the main differentiator, I love pacman, I love PKGBUILD and makepkg.
