Hmm it seems that mandriva uses a very old kolab version (%define snap 20050801
http://svn.mandriva.com/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/packages/cooker/kolab/current/SPECS/kolab.spec?view=markup)

@Oden:
I would suggest to switch/update to latest cvs. With the new buildmechanism
it's much more easier to package to kolab modules. If you want to have an
overview on how to package them have a look at my src.rpms:
