Contrib packages for 8.2 are in mandrake directory Contrib packages for cooker are in mandrake-devel directory It is not just a subdirectory question, it is a question of maintaining packages for a target distribution, which is costly. Ask Buchan, if you want details :-) Rebuilding from source solves only binary dependencies, not actual setup differences. Think of kde3 setup differences between 8.2 and cooker, for instance. -- Guillaume Rousse <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> GPG key http://lis.snv.jussieu.fr/~rousse/gpgkey.html
