In python, when you install stuff with pip, it is recommended to use a venv, to avoid breaking dependencies for a program when uninstalling another one, or when two programs need two different versions of the same dependence.

I was wondering if with Rust is the same, or if Cargo manages it all on its own (kind of like apt does), and I shouldn’t care about it.

Also since I know Linux kernel is using some Rust, isn’t there a risk of breaking my system if I uninstall a program that need some deps that the system itsel needs?
