Correct, in fact the problem would have been if you didn't get this.

The only other possibility I can think of is the the version number in
9.1 contrib and 9.2 contrib is the same and it didn't pull the 9.2
version because of this.  OR as you stated contrib isn't well vetted and
they are the 9.1 version and don't work right on 9.2.  You might
consider grabbing the src rpm and doing 

rpm --rebuild XXX.xxmdk.i586.rpm  to build them specifically to your
box.
