Talk to tvignaud (i think) about it via the mandrake cooker (or other, I
suppose) list if you want to fix it. If you are just curious about
why/how, use the mandrake user list (I'm afraid I dont have the address
for that one, but they are all listed at linux-mandrake.com). Also, you
can turn the warning off via the preferences dialogue in abiword.
If I missed something in your email, please point it out.
Best regards
