Just a little <ot> here, and no <G> needed.
I, too, have a general aversion to RPM, but the modern distros like SUSE and
Red Hat do a fine job of doing dependancy checking (a la portage) and
relieving the less savy user from the intricacies of RPM. The one thing they
don't have is the tremendously broad availability of standard packages (a la
portage). Hunting down a suitable RPM package is now the worst aspect of an
RPM based system. Of course, in you install all the -dev packages, you can
always just build from source.
