I don't think the dependency issue is the main thing keeping Linux from mainstream, but I heartily agree it's a real issue. I really like Linux (especially since getting Slackware) but chasing dependencies is the single most annoying thing about it. Sometimes after finding and installing a few packages then realizing I've run into a depedency trail that seemingly has no end, I just give up in frustration. What's really bad is when you have to think for a minute to remember what software you were trying to install in the first place........

If you have dependency problems move to debians packaging system called apt-get; apt-get has been designed to cover all dependencies (I heard there are rpm versions of apt-get available - somewhere out there)
