Building and Managing Python Packages Across Different Platforms
Building and managing Python packages is a tedious task for most data scientists, especially when the packages need to be configured to work on different platforms and operating systems. This is due to the numerous low-level libraries requiring compilation with a C, C++, or Fortran compiler, leading to complicated dependencies that hinder efficient numerical computing.

Anaconda believes that a marketplace can be created for people to create notebooks, models, datasets, and curation of these different kinds of things, in order to have a long tail marketplace dynamic, which could potentially make a bigger impact in the industry.

Summary
The package problem in Python is that there are several low-level libraries that need to be compiled, making it difficult to install the correct package for a given set of packages you need. To address this issue, a new set of technologies like build recipe system, build system and installer system has been introduced.
