Hi guys,
sorry, I was mostly away the last two days so you had to fight with kernel-modules alone. I'll try to catch up and reply where I think it's needed.
Anyway, I created a example package with kernel-modules for ndiswrapper to play a bit with the discussed scheme. It
I maintain ndiswrapper (and some other kernel-module-packages) already for livna. I just chooesed it for this example cause it's small, builds fast and needs a userspace-program and a kernel-module.
I followed the example in the wiki and some posts on this list. I split the package in a userland package that creates a %{name}-kmsrc.rpm that is used by the kernel-module-package as source. Something like this would be neat package like nvidia als ati drivers where a single srpm is quite big if you want to rebuild only the kernel-module (yes, it seems a lot of users of livna users do that).
I think the source should be a Source0 in kernel-module-ndiswrapper.
No problem with that. Was just a idea to save space.
Otherwise, I think you're right on target. (Ignoring the fact that I think ndiswrapper should probably be ExclusiveArch: i586 i686)
x86_64 also, but yes, ppc was wrong here -- i just included it here cause it's an example ;)
