Description
A long time annoying missing thing is that Fedora rpms does not by itself fetch the required kernel headers, and therefore won't work until user figures out whats missing.
YES - I am aware that Fedora have HAD a problem with fetching the wrong version - and that's most likely why you don't do it ....... but this is FIXED now.
Fedora now has a new package in all repos, that should fix this problem - it is called kernel-devel-matched
coming with this description: This meta package is used to install matching core and devel packages for a given kernel.
Please add "Requires: kernel-devel-matched" for new releases, to finally fix this annoyance
