have a look at gentoo. your machine will download source tarballs and
install them automatically. additionally it does the make install step

Its like installing from source but without the patching and stuff...
installing ardour is a matter of
sh# emerge ardour
this command will fetch current ardour-cvs and its dependencies and then
build....
look at www.gentoo.org...

I 'm getting headaches from the rpm-system.
I'd like to move over to
Slackware.
=> Does anybody have any idea how difficult/easy it is to build a
sound-workstation on slack? any links?
Isn't Slack just binary and/or source tarballs? Why not keep Mandrake
but don't use the package system and install everything from source?
Or if you want a package system done right maybe you should try Debian?
Sorry, I can't be more specific but I never used Mandrake and I left
Slackware several years ago. IMO the packaging system in Debian helps
a lot in keeping a system free of /usr/local/-cruft and conflicts.
