I pointed out earlier in this thread that we've used a scheme similar to kmdl at work (speaking of thousands of systems here) rather successfully for several years. And like I stated previously as well, this is just for the record, I'm not arguing for either scheme. It's not kmdl or kmod that scales, it's the processes for releasing kernel modules and the depsolver+plugin to handle them which need to "scale": a plugin can be smart enough to skip the kernel update if no corresponding kernel module for the new version can be found, or abort the entire update. But you'll need plugins for both schemes to catch the situation where somehow a new kernel slipped out without having kernel modules for it available, otherwise you can end up with unbootable system. - Panu - -- Fedora-packaging mailing list Fedora-packaging@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-packaging
