OK, that should be OK (Mandrake RPM being installed on a Mandrake machine)
but then why are you asking this on the Planet CCRMA list which is
specifically a Redhat based flow? The RPM's available through the Planet are
for Redhat only and will not, TTBOMK, run on Mandrake.

On the other hand, you will find folks here interested in helping

I have not heard of this problem before...

Not here, nor anywhere else I listen, but I'm not a Mandrake person.
