Vanilla Kernel RPM #17

Open LukeShortCloud opened 5 years ago

LukeShortCloud commented 5 years ago

Dealing with a fork of Fedora's kernel has been a pain because part of the process was created by other folks with different ideas on how the kernel should be maintained. This is nothing specific to Fedora, just an issue with having to deal with other people's work and trying to make it accommodate your own work.

Perhaps a new RPM spec file should be created from scratch to build vanilla LTS kernels. A lot of the Fedora patches end up getting upstreamed anyways. I would also like this to have compatibility with all of the major RPM distributions such as Fedora, RHEL/CentOS, openSUSE, and Mageia. It would be the "one kernel RPM to rule them all".
