Obviously, libslp / OpenSLP isn't installed on your system. You can download the latest stable source code (version 1.0.11) here (our VideoLAN mirror) and there (official site), to compile and install it. An official binary version (as rpm) is only available for RedHat and Suse. I don't know whether you are able to use it under Mandrake.
