I am compiling now on Mandrake 9.0 to keep the list quiet, and will post
when I have RPMs available. So far (just finished libmrproject), I only
needed to upgrade libgsf (besides libmrproject and mrproject of course).
One bad depencency (libmrproject0 requires but does not provide
libmrproject ...)

Of course, the original poster could have tried using the *source*
release, in which case he would have been finished by now ...

Anyway, binary requests are typically not made on lists devoted to the
project development, you should ask on a distribution-specific forum
(list, website etc).
