Autoconf shouldn't be needed to install the MIME stuff. Just 'configure;
make; make install'. Unless automake is doing something weird...

There's nothing complicated about either Makefile.am or configure.in in
that package, so it should work with any version. Try running 'automake',
'autoconf', and 'aclocal' manually a few times (seems to help with
automake problems for some reason ;-).

Also, don't Mandrake provide ROX-Filer and shared-mime-info RPM packages?
There seem to be some available from the 'cooker' section of their site
(choose a mirror, then Parent Directory -> contrib -> RPMS).
