unless something has changed recently, packages with you're referring to the pip-pip entries in the rosdep db? Those are there to facilitate builds from-source in a Catkin/Colcon workspace (installing dependencies can't be released through the ROS buildfarm.using rosdep).

Edit: well, in ROS 1 we had catkin_virtualenv, which sort-of made it possible. But that really only worked well for leaf packages, which I don't believe tf_transformations is.
