I'm not a Zig user, so the above is just my understanding/interpretation of the comment. FWIW a cursory googling for Zig package manager did confirm that there are several (e.g. gyro, zigmod) without an official one.

This is the first in a series of blog posts dedicated to package management for zig. The main purpose is to spark conversation within the community after starting my own package manager, gyro. I'm not advocating for it and it's design decisions to be incorporated into the official PM, merely using it to explore the solution space.
