That's right. On my (Debian) system libttf is provided by the 'libttf'
package. It's actually the FreeType1 shared library. So, although I
don't know the name of the package for Mandrake, it's most likely either
'freetype1' or 'freetype' or 'libttf'. And of course, just like any
other required packages, you would need the runtime and the development
packages installed.
