Name        : kmod
Product     : Fedora 17
Version     : 7
Release     : 1.fc17
URL         : http://git.kernel.org/?p=utils/kernel/kmod/kmod.git;a=summary
Summary     : Linux kernel module management utilities
Description :
The kmod package provides various programs needed for automatic
loading and unloading of modules under 2.6, 3.x, and later kernels, as well
as other module management programs. Device drivers and filesystems are two
examples of loaded and unloaded modules.

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

minor bug fix:
- fix issue with --show-depends, where built-in
  modules of the running kernel fail to include
  loadable modules of the kernel specified

Proper upstream release, which includes all fixes shipped in the rpm package and a couple of minor bug fixes.
Try to work around parallel execution of modprobe for the same module and let the second thread block longer to not bail out too early.
