yeah - that's always an issue and why you get certain 'required'
packages rolled in when it seems to be unnecessary...good luck and
thanks.

I was trying to recount the steps for compiling the source rpm for the
OP as he clearly was trying to find a ready binary rpm to install and
found the mandrake rpm and that didn't seem to be the proper path. Of
course if you haven't built any rpm's from source rpms, the process
appears to be rather daunting and I thought my brief counting of the
steps would be helpful.
