Modules aren't that different from other files. They are built the same way, installed the same way. I don't really see the problem (but this is a long time since I last packaged files in a RPM, so I might be missing something obvious). Since lm_sensors' modules don't require patching the kernel source tree, I sure would build them out of it and propose them as a separate package. That way you got them all (which isn't the case when patching the kernel tree) and it's less complicated to update the RPM file IMHO. > BTW does lm_sensors 2.8.1 (userland & kernel modules) require i2c > 2.8.1 or is i2c 2.8.0 already adequate?

It requires i2c 2.8.1, because a unified delay function has been introduced to replace the various separate ones that existed in 2.8.0. -- Jean Delvare http://www.ensicaen.ismra.fr/~delvare/
