Oh, you can always recreate the kernel-source package from the .src.rpm.
Just install it and change the specfile so it builds the kernel-source.
I do it for every release, because some external modules won't build
with just kernel-devel installed. Of course, this is not on any
production machine or server, where I really don't use custom modules.
