Description Christian Stadelmann 2016-08-28 16:11:29 UTC
Description of problem:
I'd like to see the files below https://www.kernel.org/doc/ in a Fedora package which could be named "kernel-doc"

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
e.g. kernel 4.7.2-200.fc24

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install kernel package + subpackages
2. Do you see documentation files?

Actual results:
No documentation provided

Expected results:
Some documentation for kernel should be shipped with Fedora packages.

We had this package long ago.  It's a pain to build and we removed it.  The documentation can be found online.
