It was perhaps shadowed by F8 announcements but EOL was
Fri. Dec. 7th. And just on this day the last kernel was announced.

Well, you need at the very least atrpms-rpm-config and
kernel-header. For some kmdls you need a full kernel source tree which
is outlined in Paulo's docs. But try first with kernel-headers.
