Fedora Extras: openafs-module unionfs-module
I don't like this. How are we supposed to refer to these packages in the yum configuration for installonly? *-module might collide with other packages that aren't kernel modules (apache module? perl module?). I like kernel-module-unionfs because it is clear that it is a kernel module, and we can use the kernel-module-* glob in yum configuration.
This seems reasonable. Is anyone opposed to:
kernel-module-GFS kernel-module-openafs kernel-module-unionfs kernel-module-ati kernel-module-nvidia
Could we also evolve to a lowercase standard for package names ? This example shows a clear example of why uppercase or mixed case could be confusing or problematic.
Other distributions already moved (or are evolving) to lower case as the default. (Even though perl is a good exception where uppercase and strict names are important)
