John, Minor problem I noticed, wondering if you had a better idea than the one I came up with. I was rolling a kernel-module-prism2 kit, basically finishing up the work from a kit I saw on the net, and throughout my testing I was constantly getting kernel symbol problems when the new drivers got their depmod. After a bunch of poking and fuming, I found out the problem: kernel arch was i686, but the package was built under i386 as the default. So, what I'm thinking is: can we provide a virtual package in the kernel RPM that lists the arch in there? Provides: kernel-2.4.21-21-i386-up Something like that? Then I can, for the WB build, remove that kind of pain from the result by %requiring the vrpm. But it's likely not the best solution. Got any better? - bish -- "What do you call the smaller ones; Cabinet-Maker Ants?" -- Kevin
