Kernel-Module packaging is already working, defined, agreed on by FESCo 
and used in Fedora Extras. See
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/extras/5/i386/kmod-em8300-0.15.3-6.2.6.17_1.2157_FC5.i586.rpm
for example. The same scheme is used in lvn -- nobody reported problems 
with it there.

But Axel thinks the scheme FESCo invented (in round about half a year of 
work) is broken and he thinks his scheme is better.
