while my kernel is 2.6.18-308.16.1.el5, attempts to yum install
kmod-openafs come back telling me that there is a missing dependancy on
kernel-x86_64 = 2.6.18-194.26.1.el5 .. This makes no sense to me.  At least
this is how I read the following:

esolving Dependencies
--> Running transaction check
---> Package kmod-openafs.x86_64 0:1.4.12-1.1.2.6.18_194.26.1.el5 set to be
installed
--> Processing Dependency: kernel-x86_64 = 2.6.18-194.26.1.el5 for package:
kmod-openafs
--> Finished Dependency Resolution
kmod-openafs-1.4.12-1.1.2.6.18_194.26.1.el5.x86_64 from openafs has
depsolving problems
  --> Missing Dependency: kernel-x86_64 = 2.6.18-194.26.1.el5 is needed by
package kmod-openafs-1.4.12-1.1.2.6.18_194.26.1.el5.x86_64 (openafs)
Error: Missing Dependency: kernel-x86_64 = 2.6.18-194.26.1.el5 is needed by

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: package-cleanup --problems
                        package-cleanup --dupes
                        rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
The program package-cleanup is found in the yum-utils package.
[iddwb@pp ~]$ uname -r
2.6.18-308.16.1.el5

Is there an easier way to get the kmod for my specific kernel version? I
tried to

wget
http://openafs.org/dl/openafs/1.4.10/rhel5/i386/kmod-openafs-1.4.10-1.1.`uname-r`

but that gives me a 404...  Any advice appreciated.
