A software install to 9.0 of the entire unsupported/kde3.1-rc3 directory produces errors:

libglut.so.3 is needed by kdegraphics-3.1-0.rc3.1-mdk
htdig is needed by kdebase-3.1-0.rc3.6-mdk
Install aborted.

What to do?

urpmf libglut.so.3
libMesaglut3:/usr/X11R6/lib/libglut.so.3
libMesaglut3:/usr/X11R6/lib/libglut.so.3.7.0

This is on CD1; htdig is on CD2

I beg to differ. Searches show that

1. htdig is only present in Cooker. No good for a 9.0 installation.

2. A Find shows that there is no such thing anywhere on my Mandrake mirrors as libglut*

Hence my expert question...

The first information I gave you was from my install sources on disk from the extracted 9.0 isos.

The first mirror I looked at had this

.../mandrake/9.0/i586/Mandrake/RPMS/htdig-3.2.0-0.4mdk.i586.rpm
.../mandrake/9.0/i586/Mandrake/RPMS/libMesaglut3-4.0.3-6mdk.i586.rpm
