Hi -- I know extremely little about Mandriva, but it appears there is
a site called club.mandriva.com that may possibly provide something
similar:

http://club.mandriva.com/xwiki/bin/view/rpms/

I don't know if this is the place to look for the latest information
when, say GnuCash is updated.

Every distro has its own procedures and terminology -- Mandriva's
"cooker" seems to correlate to Debian's testing repository, and
Ubuntu's "development" or "release+1" repository.
