The graph was partially motivated by the experience of compiling a few open source projects in windows. In Gentoo it's not "dependency hell".


Why didn't you call it something non-controversial like "A visualisation of open-source software dependencies" instead of "A nice picture of (dependency) hell", then?


Sensationalism? If you would like a post with a less controversial name, have a look at "High resolution dependency graph".
