The only dependency hell I've had installing modules in my 14 years of programming with dynamic languages was trying to get 2 different Rails apps to work out of the same gems... Ruby, my other favorite language besides Perl, is just as vulnerable to dependency problems as... every other language! Ruby, Python, Perl, Java, they all have lots of packages and modules that depend on each other. So do many Linux distributions. Dependency hell is not language nor domain specific. After all these years, one of the reasons I stick with Perl and CPAN is precisely because I can monitor and anticipate dependency problems with CPAN Testers. MetaCPAN has nice impact analysis tools too. I'm yet to find something comparable in any other language ecosystem. Hell, you can't even specify a minimum version of a module to import in Python, like in Perl's "use Module 2.3".
