Great! Also +1 to considering the fake deps subpackage in there. > We can probably cram the fake kernel crud in there for you, but I > definitely don't want it in the main kernel spec.

There are kernel packages being built in the ARM koji and more work will be done, but it's not as straightforward (yet) as building a single RPM package for all possible ARM systems people might choose to use. Until that point, there will be people who can't install the standard kernel package, need to build their own, and just want the dependencies. Like I said, most of the main systems will be supportable in a single kernel RPM in due course, and we can come asking about config changes, etc. that we need later on to roll this back into the standard kernel. Another question for you, related to this. David Marlin (dmarlin) is currently working on the OMAP kernel packages. He's based his SPEC and sources on F15 and the plan is to basically track the F15 kernel until such time as we're ready to ask to integrate whatever will be integrated back into the official kernel package. He's looking at using split-out kernel config files - can I point him to you and get you to help him figure out how those work? (he wants to make sure he's able to regenerate the config files and merge for building, etc.) Jon. _______________________________________________ arm mailing list arm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/arm
