I can see that this is starting to piss you off, but you have to understand
that if you are using Mandrake 9.0 sources for 8.2 then this is going to
happen. The packages you are trying to install are made for MDK 9, so when you
try to upgrade one this, it needs another tool greater than the version you
have (but equal to the 9.0 version), so it upgrades that package, and that
package needs newer versions of other packages so it upgrades those. Your
right, VIM doesn seem to have anything to do with samba, but you see what I am
getting at here? You shouldn't be using 9.0 sources. You should either upgrade
to 9.0, or try and find packages for Mandrake 8.2, or install from source or
source rpms.
