I assume you mean package managers such as apt, brew, winget etc.

For our Python users this brings nothing to the table (pip install rerun-sdk already sets up a rerun in your PATH).

For our Rust SDK users this is great though, as you can get nicer spawn: https://github.com/rerun-io/rerun/issues/2109 without having to wait for the extreme slow compile of cargo install rerun.

It is also nice for people just looking for a simple image- and mesh-viewer (https://github.com/rerun-io/rerun/pull/2060)
