I think I was not specific enough. The thought is that it would be generic
enough that when build against a specific release - it would create an RPM
against that one.

If I built under FC5, it would build a FC5-tunable package for the kernel that
is in FC5. and not a FC6 one.

If I built it under FC6, it would build a FC-6-tunable package for the kernel
that is in FC6, and not a FC5 one.

and so on.

This would have to be generic enough so that when FC7 comes, there is no need to
alter the SPEC file. Or if it has to be done - just the minum if possible.


In regards to your comment about "portability across distros" is a moot point.
This RPM/SPEC is specific for Fedora Core and RHEL. This spec file will not be
used by Novell/SuSE. Novell will have require their own .spec file, with
different fields.


I am not sure what you mean by "somebody downloading the kernel database". When
the RPM is installed, does it not include all the neccesary data?
