Don't worry about that. To understand better what's happening, go to http://mandrake.vmlinuz.ca/bin/view/Main/UsingUrpmi which describes the command-line possibilities and what they do. You can easily add and remove software with the gui (which is in Mandrake Control Center) but the command line gives you a lot more possibilities.
