To each their own, I guess. While I develop, I update to the latest version to take advantage of any new cool stuff (e.g., secure sessions in 0.36), or various fixes[1], and you can even use the master version, which is not even released yet. When it's time to release, I just stop updating the framework, and that's like freezing dependencies. It's much more convenient than using apt for that. If you insist on a package manager, you can use easy_install or pip, which will always have access to a much wider range of Python libraries than apt-get, and will always have access to latest-and-greatest code (not counting development versions, of course). These will install packages system-wide, just like apt, but advantages are obvious.
