Yeah, if you tried "make" while su'd to root, then it probably isn't
installed. Find it on the mdk CD (so you know where to look). Open
kpackage, let it go through it's search for programs, then, the easy way is
just to click the "open" tab and search for it in /mnt/cdrom/Mandrake/RPMS.
Click on it and check the kpackage install box. That will probably do the
trick. Or, do an upgrade to "Developer"--there's lots of stuff in developer
that you'll need, eventually.
If not, there's always the command line--copy the package to /usr, cd to /usr
then (as root) #rpm -ivh the_package_name
