Because of MBS, exact module names are not possible between RHEL and CentOS. This is because 2 things in MBS are generated at build time. One is an index number .. one is a commit hash from git. Since git.centos.org is a closed system and it's hashes will be different than the internal RHEL git repo .. the hashes will never match for commits. Also, since the CentOS MBS is a sperate system frmo the RHEL Build System .. the index number for build will also never be the same. Therefore, modules will never patch with exact names. Here is some info on how MBS works .. this is for Fedora, but the principles are the same for the CentOS version: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/Factory2/Focus/MBS -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
