Apologies for posting into the wrong subthread of this monster, I
already deleted the relevant mail.

If one of the major issues with the current kmod spec is that neither
rpm -U nor rpm -i work correctly, shouldn't that be corrected?  If the
module could install into something like this:
  /lib/modules/MODULE-VERSION-RELEASE/(KERNELVER|KABI)/MODULE.ko

instead of:
  /lib/modules/KERNELVER/extra/MODULE/MODULE.ko

wouldn't that bring the behaviour of kmods inline with that of the
kernel?  (Use rpm -i for normal operations, rpm -U if you don't believe
in Murphy).
