I recently built and installed kernel version 3.15.0-rc1 following the
KernelBuild article on kernelnewbies.org.  Everything went smooth and my
system is running fine.  However when performing an update via (sudo yum
update) the dependencies failed requiring
"kernel-devel-uname-r=3.13.10".  uname-r returns "3.15.0-rc1" as
expected.

Is there a way to get yum to recognize the latest kernel I built?  Or
does that require updating the kernel's source RPM?

I'm running Fedora 20 and am new to kernel building.  Yum's error
message is included below:

Error: Package:

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Hi Amber,

    I think that the easiest solution to your problem is install the Fedora kernel RPM "3.13.10-200.fc20.x86_64" as requested, just to circumvent this dependency error.

    You can continue running the custom kernel that you built, choosing it during the boot process (GRUB menu).

    I also think that is a good idea to install your custom kernel through RPM. It's easy to create a custom kernel RPM package with the command "make rpm-pkg"

    Regards.
