Golden rule for Mandrake users: never install binary packages from
cooker on a stable release. That is not what cooker is for.

Cooker is just about in freeze ...

So, grab the new libmrproject and mrproject SRPMs from cooker, and
rebuild them. You could also ask someone else to rebuild them for you,
specifically if you have a MandrakeClub membership.

Some RPM dependencies are generated when you link to the libraries that
are installed on the build machine, so it is entirely possible that if
you rebuild the SRPMs on your machine you will not need any more
dependencies.
