FYI, livna's akmods stuff (a simple script that compiles kmod srpms and
install them; it's in the devel repo currently only) could benefit from
something like this as well. Currently akmodsd watches rpmdb, /boot and
/usr/src/kernels using inotifywatch and starts to build kmods using
rpmbuild when new kernel and kernel-devel packages got installed and the
rpmdb was closed. The latter is needed -- otherwise akomdsd would not be
able to install the newly build kmod rpm.
