Something is strange in the user creation.
I expect this to be an openpkg problem on mandrake.
Can you correct your goup settings to
kolab:*:19414:kolab
kolab-r:*:19415:kolab-r
kolab-n:*:19416:kolab-n
manually?
If this makes the problem go away, you could better add this to
the platform notes in the wiki. And notify the openpkg people.
I think they will appreciate any help in finding and  fixing this bug.

I think the wiki platform notes would be the best place to document
your manual corrections until somebody can fix this bugs within openpkg.

Thanks for you help for figuring this out,
