I do have some bandwidth, so I put my locally built packages online. This
has only a few rpms that are not on mirrors, Olivier is doing a good job
on keeping up. It can be used together with cooker/ppc main and contrib
sources.

  RPMS:           http://www.time4t.net/~cjw/mdk-cooker-ppc/RPMS2/
  SRPMS for this: http://www.time4t.net/~cjw/mdk-cooker-ppc/SRPMS2/
  hdlist: http://www.time4t.net/~cjw/mdk-cooker-ppc/Mandrake/hdlist.cz

for apt I use the following line in my sources.list:
rpm http://www.time4t.net/~cjw/mdk-cooker-ppc Mandrake/hdlist RPMS2
