If there's no definition for "Updates for Mandrake Linux 8.2 (ftp1u)" in
/etc/urpmi/urpmi.cfg, then just delete that file.  Note that users'
interpretation of errors is usually different from developers'
interpretation.  It's not an error if the program keeps running and
works properly, it's only a warning.  It's an error if the program
aborts (aka fatal).

<grin>  Anything in [ ... ] is optional.  Anything in < ... > is a
symbol to mean "you have to adjust this to fit your own needs".

This means that it doesn't exist in /etc/urpmi/urpmi.cfg.  So just
delete the file.  Again, this is just a warning message, it's not fatal.
