Is there any plan to build fedora with their own kernel ? It's a 'must have', for some packages. e.g. GLIBC: http://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=blob_plain;f=sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/kernel-features.h;hb=HEAD A lot of features can't be used, because 2.6.18(3.5 years old) is the base kernel. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
