Not entirely true.
#1.) Mandrake Update doesn't see these packages for "automatic"
inclusion as an option.
#2.) I have tried installing Netscape Common, Netscape And
Communicator via kpackage and rpm -i "foo.rpm" and each fails because
"such and such sub package is needed by such and such something else"
#3.) If you subscribe to the mandrake security list you'll see that
the crypto sub-directory at Mandrake is missing at least one main
component. And that the various Mandrake servers have all the SNAFU
problems of occasionally falling behind on security fix updates.
#4.) IN GENERAL, you are right. It only takes a little effort to get
Mandrake Cryto Stuff, and the pretty good Manual is online (The
O'Rielly "Beast-People" book on Open_SSH is STILL NOT RELEASED!).
#5.) A question...is both gnupg and pgp updated to account for German
Security Hole on your system?
