So what?!! _AGAIN_, Mandrake Cooker is _not_ supposed to be used for
real world usage! How hard is this to understand? Jeezzz, why do
people keep complaining about this?

See, above : The raison d'etre of Cooker is exactly that, namely to get an
up to date distribution and resolving all the dependency/interoperability
issues that comes with upgrading. If you want to use Cooker
"in real world usage" you are completely on your own and no guarantees are
given (and _none_ should be given) that it won't break in the meantime
towards full release.
I'm here only a few months just observing the mailing list, I'm not a
maintainer, nor Mandrake expert, but this far I got! (I am lucky though as
I am using a mixed system ("Arrgghhhh, don't do that!" :-) but I have no
problems or resolved simple ones by only getting the really essential
parts. But hey, I'm not complaining and I won't )
Now go read it again!
