If the kernel-version is in %name you probably have Requires: kernel-module-ndiswrapper = 1.1-1 in your ndiswrapper-package and Provides: kernel-module-ndiswrapper = 1.1-1 in the module package. This is needed to get the kernel-module when you type yum install ndiswrapper Then the same thing can happen. See for example: http://bugzilla.livna.org/show_bug.cgi?id=392#c9 Here yum installed the UP-kernel and the UP-kernel-module on a machine that only had a SMP-Kernel before. -- Thorsten Leemhuis <fedora@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> -- Fedora-packaging mailing list Fedora-packaging@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-packaging
