They are building currently -- will probably take two or three hours
until all kmod's are build and published (I tried to build them
yesterday evening [CET], but the buildsys got stuck -- that's life).

Someone was working on a yum-plugin to optimize the handling of kmods.
Don't know what's the current status of it.
Last time I updated and all the packages were available, yum went
ahead and installed the new kmod-* packages for the ones I had
installed. Very nice. Of course, it only works if the new packages
are acutally built... :) We'll see if it pulls them in automatically
when they are available.
By the way, I was attempting to rebuild the src.rpms for the nvidia
and ntfs modules and ran into some issues. nvidia wanted the
kernel-kdump-devel package and ntfs wanted the kernel-xen{0,U}-devel
packages even though I only wanted to build for the normal kernel. It
didn't seem to like my --define "kvariants """ since I got errors
about it being empty. Is there a way around this so that I don't need
all the extra -devel packages (some of which may not be available)?
Also, how come there are separate src.rpms for each kernel version?
