seems to me that kmod-fuse, the new replacement for dkms-fuse, needs

I guess yum will behave similarly, ie if you "yum install kmod-fuse"
it shouldn't pull in kernel-PAE and kernel-xen (of course these are
not necessary if you have the regular kernel).
Great, this solved it for me. After 'rpm -e dkms-fuse' and 'yum install
kmod-fuse' yum now doesn't ask any more for installing kernel-PAE and
kernel-xen. Thank you very much.
ok, this is an important item that I don't think can be avoided :-/
What we could do is allow both dkms and kmod packages in the repository
(and consequently on the system), and make it more apparent which one is
being used in this scenario.
doesn't sound so good in the long run, I'ld be confused if I came
searching for fuse support and were offered both dkms and kmod versions,
with no "obsoletes" to help me choose.
The current situation isn't so bad, it's only transitory and the
solution is simple - "yum install dkms-fuse" does it.
For now, my conclusion is that pushing this tomorrow is not in scope :-/
Dag, it seems to already be in the public repos...?
