Why some say "rpm hell"

[Roger]

I haven't been following this discussion thread closely of late but 
would like to understand how and what emails, clients, headers, gmail 
and faults or not with browsers has to do with  "Why some say "rpm 
hell". I seem to have missed a step.

Was the rpm issue resolved or explained. Isn't rpm a way Fedora gathers 
and loads updates and installs new apps?
Is the email discussion a change of direction or does this no longer matter?
