akmods fails on Fedora with Nvidia drivers (Package has no %description)

[Puncia]

Hi, I've been trying to install 5.15.5 but akmods is unable to build the rpms for my Nvidia drivers.

Looking around previous issues here I found this problem mentioned a bunch of times alongside others, but no real solution has been provided as far as I am aware. I used linux-tkg in the past on the same system/installation without any issue and akmods run flawlessly.

(I also tried to install using the Generic option but run into other issues, like having to use grub2-mkconfig manually instead of grub-mkconfig like the script does, but that's beyond the scope of this issue - also I know Generic is not meant to be used with Fedora because of that)

I am using Fedora 35

Apparently the issue is related to the CacULE scheduler, which is what I've been trying to use

Probally not a issue related to the scheduler, more to fedoras way to use dkms. Or its a issue at the script missing a "description" for it.

Build it manually and watch if it still happens when using the cacule scheduler.

Given #69 the solution found was to install the official Nvidia driver that uses DKMS instead.

This happens on PDS scheduler using kernel 5.17.5 and nvidia driver version 510.62.02 as well
