IMHO, you're wrong. It's not to Mandrake to keep compliant with
Helix-GNOME but to Helix-GNOME to keep compliant with Mandrake
distribution (and others Linux distributions). They ship different
packages for different distributions, they are not distributions makers
but they ship alternatives (Mandrake, SuSE, etc.) or complements
(Caldera) to Linux distributions. So, if they really want to be used by
users, they need to adapt their packages to each distributions. They do
it, a little, but don't respect each distributions specifications. It's
bad and sad.
