Don't try install kdelibs until you finished with kdesupport. And make sure 
that you have KDE and QT paths defined in your environment (try #export to 
see what's here)

You need to update several packages from LM 7.1.
Short list: PAM, initscripts, modutils, RPM.
I also recommend Xfree86 4.0.1 (I guess XFree 3.95.something or 4.0 coming 
with LM 7.1)
can you please send me in private mail results for following commands
 #rpm -qa | grep XF
 #rpm -qa | grep kde
 #rpm -qa | grep alsa
 #rpm -qa | grep openssl
 #rpm -q xinitrc
 #rpm -q pam
 #rpm -q initscripts
 #rpm -q modutils

Juts redirect it to file like
 #rpm -qa | grep XF >> packages.txt
for all commands and send me results

If you have other dependecy problems, send me them all. (and confirm to me 
that you have original LM 7.1 install, so solution for you will work for all 
mandrake 7.1 users)
