      The thing is..., that *is* actually how people manage their runtime environments on #MacOS. I've seen it too many times.... ☹

      When I ask people who develop on #MacOS how they put up with that crap, they never even understand the question. And when I say "look, this is what I do on Debian" and show them APT, debootstrap, schroot, sbuild…, half the time their reaction is actually to deny reality entirely and insist that what I'm showing them isn't actually happening—like I'm putting on some very elaborate ruse.

         I never even seem to be able to get to the point where I say, "and look, I since I just mk-sbuild'd a raspbian ARM chroot on my x86-64 laptop now `sbuild -c raspbian' builds natively for a raspberry pi on my x86-64 without even needing a cross compiler—I just chroot into a completely different ISA".

      This is what makes crap like Docker get so much traction.
