Packaging of kernel modules isn't one of them IMHO. Yeah, that's a fair point. However, it would be useful if those who _do_ care about kernel module packages would come to an agreement about how it should be done, and that can be documented somewhere central to Fedora -- like on the Fedora wiki. We can modify our kernel RPM and yum if appropriate in order to support that agreed method. But you're right; the packaging committee don't need to waste time on it. -- dwmw2 -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
