The discussion that I am trying to bring up has to do with an issue that often is comes as a complaint. The RPM does not install the source in the correct location from the src.rpm and quite often the first thing that is required in a upgrade or installation is to rebuild the kernel. The issue is one about Fedora core by the way as stated in the question. I wish that responses are to the question asked and if you need a clarification state that. There was no reply on the response I sent.
