I prefer to have all of my stuff in a single place, so I usually opt to install everything I can through my system's package manager. This way I can update all my software and libs in a single step.
The only exception to that is when handling actual source code for libraries that won't be used system-wide, for which I prefer to use the language's own manager, like Rust's Cargo.
Yeah but installing with the system's package manager is not always an option, there are a lot of distributions where packages for some softwares are outdated or don't even exists.
