Thanks. Installing a new kernel won't automatically get a new kernel-firewire package installed. This breaks setups where people forget to update the kernel and will certainly break any automatic upgrades people may have set up. On the one hand, you can't have kernel depend on an optional kernel-firewire package. On the other hand, people's systems might depend on it... AFAIK Yum can't handle situations like this right. -- "Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place.
