On gentoo I build from sources, but I've not had dependency hell since my Mandrake days, as there's usually at least a masked version of the ebuild that I can unmask somewhere, that has all the deps listed.
I know that apt-get, the Debian/Ubuntu package manager, will resolve deps and bring them in as needed, as I've seen it happen on my sister's Ubuntu box. And, yum, the Fedora equivalent, does the same. I'm not familiar with gentoo, so I have to ask: doesn't your package manager take care of such things, or are you talking about building packages that are not from the gentoo repos?
