Description of problem: A fresh installation of Fedora 28 (KDE spin) included the current kernel (4.16.6) without matching kernel modules. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 28 How reproducible: Unknown. I'm not about to start over - I've already installed twice as the machine wouldn't boot Fedora in UEFI mode. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Download iso for Fedora 28 (KDE spin) 2. Create USB installation key using dd 3. Boot machine using key, choosing the non-UEFI version from the boot menu. 4. Install Fedora to hard disk. 5. Reboot machine to new installation. Actual results: Installed kernels: 4.16.3, 4.16.6 Installed kernel-modules: 4.16.3 Default kernel configured in grub: 4.16.6 On this machine, this broke network access when the default kernel was booted because the machine depends on WIFI which needs, obviously, the relevant modules. Expected results: Every installed kernel package should depend on the corresponding kernel-modules package, so that whichever kernel gets booted, usable kernel modules are present. Additional info: Thank goodness for 4.16.3. It took me a while to figure out what was wrong (I assumed I needed some non-standard firmware trick or something as this was a fresh install), but at least there's an easy fix now I've got there. I couldn't figure out what differed in the live install, where everything worked fine. Doh! Of course, the live install has a kernel *and* modules.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 28 is nearing its end of life. On 2019-May-28 Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 28. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '28'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 28 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 28 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2019-05-28. Fedora 28 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates.
