Thanks for those who responded. I did some more research on this and found that not all RPM packages that are part of the 10.1 official release are in the 3 ISO CD images hosted on mandrakelinux.com (and the mirrors). There are more packages (particularly the *-devel packages) at ftp://carroll.cac.psu.edu/pub/linux/distributions/mandrakelinux/official/10.1/i586/media/main So I added this URL as an RPM source using K->System->Configuration->Packaging->Software Media Manager and now I could get these devel packages listed under RPMdrake. I installed them successfully. I could have done urpmi.addmedia but the GUI solution also works. As for the devel package names, XFree86-devel is no longer needed (use xorg-x11-devel), freetype2-devel is now libfreetype6-devel and qt-devel is actually libqt3-devel.
