Excuse my inability to get my point across. Better put could
have me saying the packages that ImageMagic were said to
need I thought were in the dpsftplib-rpm which I had installed?
If not what packages were the error messages referring to?
i.e.>ImageMagick-5.2.2-4mdk

The 'nodeps' question was ment to refer to the over-all missing deps
problem I was having rather than 'nodeps" itself but I certainly 
appreciate such a civil response to such an elementary sounding
question.      remember the time not so long ago that a "what is nodeps" 
would have seen multiple,"RTFM you idiot" responses :)
Are you-all mellowing or something.? I find it very professional!!!

So does this apply to something I "user/alpha/beta-testor"
should do or is this a Mandrake issue?

I have been off the List for several months getting relocated
to a more rural area of Alaska and am not sure if the procedure
has changed any? Now with slow dial-up access I can only 
download a few cooker rpms at a time, try them out and report 
back to "The List" . Is this acceptable practice?
I am using hybrid L-M 7.0/7.1/Cooker.
