I don't see anything missing. I think it's more like kernel versions >=
2.6.24, but my memory is somewhat hazy. I don't think the WM5+ support
was in the kernel as far back as 2.6.21, though. I'm pretty sure it was
merged later than that.

I would suggest you also package (if it's not done already) and include
in these metapackages KitchenSync (for KDE 3) and multisync-gui (for
GNOME). It's a good idea to have a GUI frontend so people don't have to
futz about with msynctool. Get multisync-gui from this SVN repo:
http://svn.opensync.org/multisync/branches/multisync-gui-0.2X
KitchenSync is part of kdepim. For KDE 4 it's a bit of a mess, I haven't
sorted it out yet.
Another thing I do for MDV is have separate meta-packages for WM5+ and
WM2003 devices. You can check out the MDV metapackages at:
http://svn.mandriva.com/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/packages/cooker/task-wm5sync-common/current/
http://svn.mandriva.com/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/packages/cooker/task-wm2003sync-common/current/
