Spec URL: http://theholbrooks.org/RPMS/open-vm-tools-kmods.spec
SRPM URL: http://theholbrooks.org/RPMS/open-vm-tools-kmods-0-0.1.20070904svn56574.2.6.22.5_76.fc7.src.rpm
Description:
This package contains the 4 kernel modules required by open-vm-tools:
vmblock
vmhgfs
vmmemctl
vmxnet

Some general RFC:
- First and foremost, should this package really be split up into 4 packages, one for each module, like "kmod-vmblock" and "kmod-vmhgfs"  There shouldn't be a reason anybody would want a subset of the 4...
- This package currently builds, installs, and works in F7 but not rawhide (upstream incompat with latest kernels... working on a patch).
