That’s unfortunate side-effect of rpm having file dependencies ... the 
matrix of possible dependencies apt-get has to resolve is by the order 
of magnitude smaller. And IIRC need for RAM required for depsolving is 
exponentially dependent on the number of dependencies. OTOH, file 
dependencies make some thinks incredibly more simple.
