"They" full well know what unsupported means.  It is OFFICIALLY not 
supported.  Why?  Is it because there is any REAL difference between the 
SUPPORTED version (in OFFICIAL cooker) and the "unsupported" versions for 
7.2?  NO.  No difference.  The only real difference is the former is built 
from glibc2.2 while the latter is built with glibc2.1.  Big deal.  

For all PRACTICAL purposes, they are identical.  This is proven true by the 
fact that if you download the straight source from KDE rather than from 
Mandrake sources, it does not say you MUST use glibc2.2.  Many other distros 
that are making use of the latest KDE are NOT using glibc2.2 (yet). 

Get off your snide, sarcastic platform.  Complaint or criticism IS valid, 
regardless.  How would you EVER know of any problem if no one did this?  As 
for tone, when repeated and repeated questions or posts of problems 
concerning what should be a VERY simple problem and answer go unanswered 
repeatedly, then I would say tone has every right to change.

Get over it.
