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.

The first problem you have is that you did not correct the maximum width
of you messages. The second is that it sounds very trolling when you
start saying Windows solved this.

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.

Well, then there must be some problems about the dependecies. What you
do is solve them, Very easy to do.

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

What you need to do is solve those problems. The level of concern is
extremely low.

What? You do not know how to solve it? I just clearly stated how to do
it just below each dependecy problem you wrote.
