I would like to upgrade the applications on my Mandrake 8.1, like Galeon
for example. But usually, grabbing an RPM from the net somewhere only
leads to a mess of dependency problems. I always try to chase down the
dependencies at least once or twice, but they often lead to more
problems until I might as well wait for Mandrake 8.2!

I know RPM has its limitations, but it would seem that MDK builds posted
to rpmfind and other sources are so dependent on the Cooker/beta
Mandrake there's no chance to get it installed on a release version.

Am I doing something wrong? Packages like Nautilus, Evolution, Mozilla,
Galeon, and a lot of KDE stuff have come a long way since 8.1 was
frozen.
