[ATrpms-devel] suspend2 kernel provides

Hi!

I noticed that the suspend2-kernels are providing something like
kernel-suspend2 = 2.6.16-1.2111_1.99.rhfc5.cubbi_suspend2_8k
instead of
kernel = 2.6.16-1.2111_1.99.rhfc5.cubbi_suspend2_8k
(The same applies to kernel-suspend2-smp vs. kernel-smp.)

This leads to problems when compiling external kernel-modules like
openafs (sorry axel ;)) as they, of course, all have
Requires: kernel = %{kversion}
instead of
Requires: kernel-suspend2 = %{kversion}
... in their spec-files.

Is there a reason why you named it kernel-suspend2 instead of just kernel?
I believe there should be at least an additional
Provides: kernel = %{suspend2version}
... to avoid having to rewrite all third party spec-files...

Btw.: I'd be really happy if you could disable CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA in
the suspend2_8k kernel, as this breaks OpenAFS' group-based PAGs. A
patch for the spec-file is attached.

Cheers,
--leo
