And maybe kernel packages should now prerequire kernel-utils, since it
is no longer guaranteed that /sbin/installkernel is installed before a
kernel (as it was when it was in initscripts). Installing a kernel now
can easily result in no mods necessary to use the kernel, and no error
messages during installation.

Juan, this probably needs to be fixed sooner than later!

With the creation of this rpm should not ksymoops be rebuilt so as not
to provide  kernel-utils

rpm -q --provides kernel-utils
perl(common)  
kernel-utils = 0.2-1mdk

rpm -q --provides ksymoops
kernel-utils  
ksymoops = 2.4.8-2mdk

rpm -q --requires initscripts

kernel-utils  

At present 
urpmi initscripts 
 One of the following packages is needed:
 1- ksymoops-2.4.8-2mdk.i586
 2- kernel-utils-0.1-1mdk.i586

If an alias is used were auto-select is run and installation is
automatically done ksymoops is installed by default and the
kernel-utils rpm is not installed.
