Hi,
I tried upgrading an SMP RHEL4 client today with the 1.4.7 RPMs and built the kernel module with rpmbuild the way I usually do. However,
although I specified --define "kernvers 2.6.9-67.0.15.ELsmp"
- which syntax always worked before, it built the non-SMP kernel module.

Is there a problem with the RPMs on the web site?

With 1.4.7, we have moved to building 'kmod' style kernel modules. These build multiple different kernel variants (SMP, Xen, PAE, etc) from a single SRPM, using the standard RedHat mechanism for packaging kernel modules. When you're using this, you should give it the kernel version by defining 'kernvers', and the list of variants you want to build by defining 'kvariants'. When 'kvariants' is undefined, you will build a standard kernel module.

You can get the old behaviour back by defining 'fedorakmod' to 0

Cheers,

Simon.
