Description of problem: The linux-2.6-build-remove-configh-include.patch patch davej added two days ago to kill include/kernel.h is causing a build failure in my ivtv dkms rpm. Please back it out Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.18-1.2747.fc6
it's going away upstream. ivtv needs to be changed. just remove the #include <linux/config.h>
Well, if it's going upstream, let it go upstream What's the point of removing it ahead of time in Fedora ? Have non-Fedora people complain Red Hat does not follow upstream and patches its kernels with all sorts of strange stuff ? I thought the aim was to kill this reputation ?
it means when I rebase to 2.6.19 as an update for FC6 (which will happen very shortly after its release), third party drivers will be already ready. A surprising number of out-of-tree drivers only ever release updates for the release kernel, and choose not to release updates for the errata kernels.
