You're missing three issues that have not been resolved, nor will the be in the forseeable future: 1) Morons using dependancies against specific files. Gotta love having to create spaghetti filesystems just to install packages. 2) Fracturisation of the format. RH, mdk, SuSE, and god knows who else all use RPMs, none are terrably compatible with each other for various reasons. 3) Lack of standardized package names. You can have all the dependancies installed and RPM wouldn't know it. Yeah, you can force it, but who really wants to routinely force things and leave them to chance? - -- .''`.
