Dependency Hell Slang

Definitions

1. Informal language used around the frustration of conflicting versions, transitive surprises, and broken package resolution. In engineering slang, dependency hell is one of those pains so universal it barely needs explanation.

   In plain English: Casual jargon for the misery caused by conflicting or fragile dependencies.

   Example: "The migration notes were full of dependency hell slang because everyone already understood how one innocent upgrade could break five unrelated build paths."
