Many popular Python libraries are available in various Linux distributions. However, it is not always possible and/or desirable to install them from packages. For instance, sometimes you don't have root access to the target machine or just want to have other vesrion of some library isolated under your home directory.
I've been successfully using this approach on my laptop and several development and production sites for about two years so far.
