Thanks in advance
This is a theoretical.

The question is how this will work in practice[1], in your case.
Josh, if this is the last occurrence of the "iwlagn", i.e. EL6.2,
/usr/lib/modules/2.6.32-220.23.1.el6.x86_64/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwlagn.ko
and currently in use is the "iwlwifi", i.e. Rawhide & Fefeora 20,
/usr/lib/modules/3.14.0-0.rc1.git3.1.fc21.x86_64/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwlwifi.ko
/usr/lib/modules/3.12.9-301.fc20.x86_64/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwlwifi.ko
maybe it should write:
"Description :
This package contains the firmware required by the *iwlwifi* driver
for Linux. …"
