As I informed you when you made this claim before, neither of these
situations occurs here. I am surprised that once disproved you would
persist with them?

Surely such things are easily corrected at the source level? Such
activity by Mandrake is what results in the -<number>mdk versions -
it is their job. But thanks for attempting a compile.

I am still awaiting their decision and rationale - so far, nothing.
Again, although installing kdf-0.5.1-1mdk.i586.rpm from 6.1 produces
two warnings, I assure you all that it works just fine in all
respects for me in both 7.0 and 7.1 with > 6GB partitions and nfs
mounts galore and is in constant use with no problems. A wonderful
piece of software!
