Make a symlink /usr/lib/libbz2.so.1.0 that points 
to /usr/lib/libbz2.so.1.0.0 .  That fixes the bz2 library.

For the expat library, I don't know for sure what you'd do since you're 
running an old distro and you say you can't upgrade it.  First, see if 
there's a package that matches expat-2.n for your old Mandrake.  Yes, the 
library is version 1 while the version# for the package is 2.  Don't ask me.  
Also, *DO NOT* uninstall the old expat, or a bunch of GNOME and KDE stuff 
will break.  There is a hackaround (which works well IME) but just don't go 
there.

If no expat-2 for your distro, think *REALLY HARD* about upgrading to a more 
recent distro, then go to http://expat.sourceforge.net/ and get the 2.0.1 
tarball, unpack it, ./configure it, make, make install, rerun ldconfig .  
expat doesn't have any dependencies except for gcc and libc according to the 
ebuild.

This sort of thing is standard practice when you don't keep up to date, which 
is why I keep up to date.
