Why don't we stop wasting our time packaging them? How would you like that? How do people packaging contribs ever know that there are problems if people like you don't *report bugs to the packager* ? If you don't see anything happen and you mailed cooker, cc the packager next time, especially if the packager is not @mandrakesoft (beware, some people @mandrakesoft.com prefer not to be cc'ed if it's on cooker already), and also since the ML seems to be giving problems right now. It seems Douda updated Gyach to 0.7.6 at your request. Your last message was that you would take a look at the problems that still existed. Fred fixed gd2 for me (thanks Fred!), so that it doesn't obsolete gd1, to solve you problem. So it appears people from Mandrakesoft fix contrib, although it is not *officially* supported.

Just remove the RPMS2 link which points to ../../contrib/RPMS. Really. How do you expect things to ever get fixed if people go on like this?
