Name        : module-init-tools
Product     : Fedora 15
Version     : 3.16
Release     : 1.fc15
URL         : None
Summary     : Kernel module management utilities.
Description :
The module-init-tools package includes various programs needed for automatic
loading and unloading of modules under 2.6 and later kernels, as well
as other module management programs. Device drivers and filesystems
are two examples of loaded and unloaded modules.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

Existing releases of module-init-tools cannot handle Linux kernel version numbering in which x.y.z releases are replaced with x.y releases. This update contains a fix for such version number handling, as well as support for multiple configuration file directories, with sorted priorities, and some general build and documentation fixes that will make supporting this release easier for the lifetime of Fedora 15.
