RFD: kernel-devel package improvements

Mon Mar 28 20:32:38 UTC 2005

A quick status update:

some of the points from my initial mail in this thread have been
applied/implemented in the current Rawhide kernels; here are the missing
ones I think would be nice to get "in" too:

uname in kernel-devel directories:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/145914

uname-based -devel provisions:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/152357

If the two RFEs/patches above would be accepted, I think we'd have a
complete, easy-to-use, and consistent "interface" in place for kernel
module packagers.

Then, in a different category: not interface, but implementation issue,
there's still https://bugzilla.redhat.com/147553 , but I tend to think
this is secondary priority.
