This is my first package submission and it's a series, so please bear with me
if I'm way off. I'm not sure if this is packaged correctly.


%description
A kernel module implementing the Virtual Host Bus Adapter for the CDEmu daemon.

This kernel module takes care of device emulation in the kernel; it registers 
a virtual device with the appropriate drivers and creates corresponding device 
nodes. It also creates a special character device that is used for 
communication with user space CDEmu.

This package is not eligible for Fedora as it's a kernel module not in the
vanilla tree.

Notes:

1) The URL is valid.
2) Lack of documentation in the -kmod package is per the Kmods2 standard.
3) The binary does in fact get stripped. I have no idea why it claims
otherwise.
4) The kmod-* messages are generated because of the macros in the Kmods2
template, not sure I have much to say there.
5) I am not allowed to patch COPYING, however I have created patches for source
headers and included them. I have also sent them to upstream developers,
including a patch for the license files themselves. vhba.c does also get
patched but apparently not included in the -debuginfo.
