Sad state that it took a lawsuit to get this out of apple..

If this had been M$, the Mac partisans would have been whining and wringing their hands ... "Oh, the horrorrrrrrrrrrr..."

You're not so much an Apple partisan as you are an anti-M$ bigot.

Lets see...

Neither one of these actually gives an example of a standard user application which causes RPM hell?

I installed Openoffice by using gyum (link in the task bar menu) which automatically picked up a few deps and installed them and I had no trouble. I aksed for an application on a distro which caused dep hell for a desktop user??
