kopete/CMakeLists.txt:macro_log_feature(XMMS_FOUND "XMMS" "X
MultiMedia System development libraries" "http://www.xmms.org" FALSE
"" "Used by the Kopete nowlistening plugin to support the XMMS
player.")

But this isnt the main issue, these packages should be provided by
mageia (they are provided by the main linux distros), if the packages
were no longer maintained than i would agree that wouldnt be needed to
put them available in mageia, but thats not the case.
