Why can't I find kmod-nvidia for 3.6.10

Hi All,
(Is there a separate rpmfusion list I should ask this on?)
On Sunday, 16th December, yum update brought in a new kernel package
kernel-3.6.10-2.fc17.x86_64
root at snoopy ~ # rpm -qa kernel
kernel-3.6.9-2.fc17.x86_64
kernel-3.6.8-2.fc17.x86_64
kernel-3.6.10-2.fc17.x86_64
To date (20th December) I can't reboot into it because there is no
corresponding update for the nVidia driver:
root at snoopy ~ # yum update xorg-x11-drv-nvidia xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs.i686 xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs kmod-nvidia
Loaded plugins: langpacks, presto, refresh-packagekit
No Packages marked for Update
A yum search confirms this (see below).
I appreciate that it's a volunteer project and there are no guarantees, and
that the proprietary nvidia module is frowned upon, but generally speaking
I see kmod updates within a day of the corresponding kernel update so I
wonder whether I have broken something or am otherwise doing something
wrong? If it's just a matter of having more patience that's fine too!
Advice would be appreciated.
