UP: kernel-<version> => kernel-module-XXX-<version> SMP: kernel-smp-<version> => kernel-smp-module-XXX-<version> IMO, then such a conflict as described above would not happen, because "kernel-smp-module" would require "kernel-smp" and "kernel-module" would require "kernel" Ralf -- Fedora-packaging mailing list Fedora-packaging@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-packaging
