How is this statement justified? The RPM dependencies do not indicate this:

$ rpm -qRp kmod-drbd82-smp-8.2.6-2.2.6.9_78.0.5.plus.c4.x86_64.rpm /bin/sh /bin/sh /sbin/depmod /sbin/depmod drbd82 >= 8.2.6 kernel-smp-x86_64 = 2.6.9-78.0.5.plus.c4 rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) <= 3.0.4-1 rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) <= 4.0-1 rpmlib(VersionedDependencies) <= 3.0.3-1

$ rpm -qlp kmod-drbd82-smp-8.2.6-2.2.6.9_78.0.5.plus.c4.x86_64.rpm /lib/modules/2.6.9-78.0.5.plus.c4smp/extra/drbd.ko

Since the current kernel is 78.0.8, this module will fail dependency checks. And install to the wrong module directory for the 78.0.8 kernel anyway... I have tickets 3291 and 3316 open for this. -Alan
