I suggest you read through http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/KernelModules and apply ideas presented there to the module packaging scheme you're using in case you're not going to use that one as is. > I would like the upgrade to be as > painless for users as possible, and as there is no easy way to give them > a message like "add uinput to modprobe.conf", I don't think that would be necessary. Just drop in the /etc/sysconfig/modules snippet, run appropriate depmods and be done with it. What I was objecting to was explicitly installing/removing modules in/from the running kernel in package scriptlets. > they could be a bit surprised when swiping will cease to work for them. I fail to see how not installing/removing modules in %post and friends would result in that. In fact it feels more likely that it could happen if you *do* it. -- Fedora-maintainers mailing list Fedora-maintainers@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-maintainers -- Fedora-maintainers-readonly mailing list Fedora-maintainers-readonly@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-maintainers-readonly
