Install the RPM to machine C In over 20 years of Linux distros existing, the one thing that everyone has learned is that installing foreign RPM packages (or any other format) is probably not going to work for one reason or another. Different package names in Require: lines (just think of the switch from modutils to kmod), different ABIs.. The overwhelming amount of package production that is going on these days targets distro(A) == distro(B) == distro(C). Yeah, the kernel package is kinda special because the files in it are freestanding executables, but still..
