Hello Xavier,
 Sorry for my late reply because I just got home from work and school.
Here's my reply:

MandrakeUpdateRobot will be statically linked so that it won't require
lib curl later on.

And this one works okay in Mandrake 7.2, maybe it's because you're using
RPM v4 :-) Hellooooooo? Is it a bug in RPM 4??

Yes, and I will supply the setup wizard as well. Don't worry.

Yes, I will do as Mandrake Update do. You can include the option to
remove it afterward. I'm going to design the setup wizard (both text and
Gnome GUI tool).

Yes, e-mail will be automated. Right now I only print to stderr because
I want to debug it :-)

Yes, it works with my machine too here :-) Downloading 149 new RPMs here
for 7.2! :-)
