Maven basically solved Java's dependency problems back in 2005.

Serious question: Isn't maven the reason that you can't really package Hadoop? It is my (high level) understanding that it is at the core of (or a big part of) why Hadoop is so hard to build on your own vs VM.

Hadoop is hard to package because build scripts are treated as second hand citizens for most projects. There's a high standard of code reviews for many projects, but for the build scripts it's "it works, merge it".

I've built quite big projects with Maven (>2 million LOC) without issues.
