Then I'd say: Go and work towards fixing the tools and the tools and
workflows behind it (when I was handling the pushes for RPM Fusion I
sometimes removed old kmods by simply removing old SRPMs, then the push
scripts removed all the compiled kmods -- with a scheme like your that
would delete the common package, too). Until then I'd say the split is
the easiest.

knurd

P.S.: And I'd say the kmod scheme has way bigger problems that might be
worth addressing first. Just my point of view.
