ok, i just looked at mandrake_desk changelog, we speak about the same
bug, ie the eazel themes bugs...
you then know who dit it ... :-)

i didn't understant at first since you speak about "default mdk theme"
whereas :
- the only bug of this specie i known whas eazel one 
- the installation just install some packages in each packages
  sections selected by the user in newbie installation.  but this term
  was used by mdk updates team

[tv@ke rpm]$ urpmf libmpeg
kdemultimedia:/usr/lib/libmpeg-0.3.0.so
kdemultimedia:/usr/lib/libmpeg.la
kdemultimedia:/usr/lib/libmpeg.so

the problem is that now they'll probably claim it'll break
source compatibility... :-(
and worse, one of the kde project goal is to remains binary compatible
in Y branch.
the question is: is kde's libmpeg only used in kdemultimedia ? if yes,
this may be fixed in a simple manner.

i've already made them changed their mind when i was ImageMagick
maintainer: mosfet just put ImageMagick in kde because he wanted to
use an altered version of it ...
i noticed it immediatly whan it conflicted with libMagick5-devel :-(

hopefully they've stopped to do this. but others projects (eg mplayer)
continue to "cvs_steal" other projects (but at least mplayer doesn't
comew with shared libs that would conflicts)
