PDM: A Modern Python Package Manager

Sold everyone on using poetry a few months ago and now red faced as we have a litany of problems and time waste due to it. We are now sitting on some bleeding edge branch because specific dependencies cannot work at all without some new fangled feature and everyone wishes we were just using plain virtualenv as we had much less problems with that.

You would also not have any real control over what gets installed with just venv. So everyone might think the grass was greener on the other side, but it might not actually be, if you value reproducible environments.

What you've never spent hours trying out n! orderings of requirements.txt until you get the results you want/can live with? You have not lived until you've done this. /s

In other words, you work with people who have no clue what’s going on.
