I can't see it on https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/showdependencytree.cgi?id=FC-ACCEPT I'm probably just to dumb to find it... - no kernel-xen-2.6 (yet?) on http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/devel/?root=core - until now we had the (unwritten?) rule that we have only one kernel srpm in Fedora and that other kernels packages are not allowed (especially not in Extras -- but Extras and Core are no more). When did that change? Who decided that -- I'd say such a important change should get ACKed by FESCo, but seems I have missed that... Anyway: Does that mean that we could have a -rt, -vserver, -openvz, -vanilla, -foo or -bar kernels in Fedora now, too (²)? - this to some degree breaks the kmod packaging (that was designed under the assumption(³) we have only one kernel-package with a lot of subpackages that all have the same version-release). Okay, it's not that bad as you can build the kmod srpm once for the real kernels and then for the xen-kernels, but that requires to set up the buildroot up twice for each arch -- that takes a lot of time :-/ . CU thl (¹) -- actually I think it's a good idea to have a separate package for xen! (²) -- I don't think we want that in our main repo (³) -- note: yes, I know, the kmod standard is in large parts my work -- but it got influenced by a lot of people. I for example never was really comfortable with this assumption -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
