My Mdk 10.1 Official distribution was enclosed to an Italian linux magazine.
I suppose instead that the official pkg shipped onto 3disks of mdk distro
contains that package. If so, is it normal
(I mean conforming to free software and open source rules)
that a package sold out by a magazine as Mandrake 10.1
differs from the original so to lack of such important packages
(as libGConf2_4-devel, libgtk+2.0_0-devel and libgtk+-x11-2.0_0-devel)?
Can anybody provide answer to this question?

Thanks,
Rodolfo
