This package was missing from 9.0 also.  I think it is a feature, not a bug.  
The package is huge, and since everyone wnats 650MB iso's, it's going to get 
left out.  Easily fixed with a web download, it would be nice if this was 
documented though.

Yes, it is true.  There was a big thread about this on the newbie (or was it 
expert) list a few weeks ago and just this sentiment was expressed.  I think 
it is important for people to understand what MandrakeSoft says these things 
mean though, not what people think they should mean.  Whether it is there 
responsibility to search this info out, or MandrakeSoft's responsibility to 
make it more available is the subject of another discussion.
