Well, I feel that way about *all* the modern window manager things.
It's almost impossible to actually build Gnome or KDE from a .tgz file
anymore. You need a packaging system to take care of the myriad
dependencies.
However, I suspect that the only reason this is a complaint is because
we *can* build KDE or Gnome from source. I'm sure that Windows or OS X
has a similar chain of dependencies.
