Comment 1 Parag AN(पराग) 2006-08-02 09:07:19 UTC
Follow guidelines given on http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/KernelModules
For submitting Kernel Module package , you need to include/give here 
 * A publishable explanation from the author(s) why the module is not merged
with the mainline kernel yet and when it's planed to get merged. You of course
can ask the author to explain it directly in the bug report.




Comment 2 Daniel Rindt 2006-08-27 10:08:08 UTC
the reason why it isnt in the mainline kernel included yet is that the code is
still beta and in heavy development.

Comment 3 Kevin Fenzi 2006-12-31 21:28:25 UTC
It appears that btsco is depreciated now... 
the new 'plugz' bluetooth-alsa project no longer requires a kernel module. 

See: 
http://bluetooth-alsa.sourceforge.net/history.html

Perhaps this should be closed now?
Might you consider packaging the new 'plugz' and 'sbc' packages?

Comment 5 Warren Togami 2007-01-25 16:10:52 UTC
Closing due to comment #3.  Please consider packaging the new sofware.
