Seems like this command will install ardour2.5, not 2.7.1. In rpmdrake 
both 2.5 and 2.7.1 are listed. However, I cannot find a command to 
install 2.7.1 with urpmi (anyone?).

So, when doing "urpmi" this package will be installed:
ardour-2.5-1mdv2009.0.i586

It should also be noted that in the info for packages for both version, 
this warning appears:

Important notice: This package is built against the system libraries in 
Mandriva, and in the SConstruct file there is a text that seems to 
invalidate support from upstream authors "USE AT YOUR OWN RISK: CANCELS 
ALL SUPPORT FROM ARDOUR AUTHORS".
