I downloaded the packages individually using the link to the ftp mirrors on the Mandrake bugfix site--these: http://www.mandrakesecure.net/en/ftp.php The packaglist needed is on the bugfix site: http://www.mandrakesecure.net/en/advisories/advisory.php?name=MDKA-2003:030-1 I installed 6 packages, all the listed ones except the *.src.rpm. I installed each package from the command line with: root#rpm --nodeps -Ufvh name_of_file.rpm Then I did an #update-menus -v which acted like it didn't complete (took a long time and never returned me to the command prompt), but it must have, because I did a Cntrl>C after 45 minutes or so and restarted kde and my menu items were all there. I hope it works for you.
