Yes, exactly. And YMMV, etc. For a year or two, I did use MCC to install 
the developer tools, and all was fine. (I loved MCC, it was such an 
improvement from the RedHat offering at that time).

I'm no expert on the current state of Mandriva, but I'd guess that 
2007.1 is not their latest and greatest.

Over time, all equivalent things (RDBMS, distros, etc.) tend to catch 
up, there really is no such thing as a "best" in these areas.

Plus, I'm running the beta SC, which is currently Version: 7.4 - r27258
So my ability to help directly is not all that great.

Hope I haven't distracted too many folks
