dependency hell

So my 10.2 system is now pretty much frozen. I can't install or uninstall any major packages anymore, or I spend an hour going in a loop trying to figure out
dependencies. Its really frustrating. Microsoft solved these problems almost 10 years ago.. of course they were never in it as deep as Linux what with all the
community projects releasing new versions all the time and depending on each other.

I have another box running 10.3. was hoping to try out Anjuta 2.2.x on it, even tried the 1 click install for it... nope, dependency problems.

Just looking for any info, whats being done? What is the level of concern?
