I think you got this backwards. With maven, ant (ie. Ivy), gradle and
leiningen this similar easy to do. Just add the dependency to your
configuration file.

What is complicated about maven, ant (ie. Ivy), gradle and leiningen
(in various degrees) is the other part: the build process itself. And
this isn't solved by gems, easy_install or CPAN neither. (configure
scripts, native compilation problems (esp. on Windows), ....)

Sincerely
Meikel
