Not necessarily. If Helixcode want to overlay a set of their own
packages replacing Mandrake ones, then they are responsibly for
supporting them.

On the other hand, Mandrake Cooker has the latest packages from
Helixcode incorporated with very little delay - and the packages are
fixed to work well with Mandrake Linux. Why not use them?
If Helixcode really want to support Mandrake users then there is nothing
stopping them from getting the fixes from Mandrakes packages. Thats the
beauty of open source software after all.
