Parent article: Revisiting RPM Package Management

> SuSE Linux is the only major Linux distribution still stubbornly refusing to provide and support

Suse had dependency management even before they switched to rpm packages.
selecting any new package in yast[12] allways gave a set of dependent packages
or would warn about installed packages that are/whre incompatible.
You could then chose to add these atuomatic or manual.
What use would the menue item "check dependencies" other wise have.

Or did I missunderstand the quoted complaint?
