sapling More choices of installation on Linux

I'm trying to install sapling on an AWS host. But it only has yum, not apt. Can we provide more options for installation, for example anaconda?

At some point we might start doing distro independent releases, as mentioned in #160 . Python compatibility is however, a non-trivial issue, as you can see in #144 . We still need to figure out how to provide an RPM to Fedora / CentOS / OpenSuse since all those distros might have different Python versions available.

I've started an attempt at packaging Sapling for Nixpkgs: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/201798

then why not a pypi deployment ? then pipx could be used to deploy anywhere.

I've started working on the Fedora packaging in https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/dcavalca/sapling/ but until https://github.com/facebook/sapling/issues/143 is sorted out this isn't something we can package in the distribution.
