Is RPM Hell on Fedora anything like on Mandrake?

I tried installing a bunch of stuff as a batch on Mandrake, once, and after spending about 20 minutes thinking, it barfed, telling me that there was a dependency problem.  Of course, it didn't tell me WHAT the dependency was, what it was installing, and it outright quit the entire batch install without letting me skip the package that was causing the problem.

I think that was my 12th Linux distro install, and also my last.
