Older nvidia driver required?, Read this!

Don’t expect older driver support for newer kernels, the createrepo app used to generate the repo doesn’t support multiple versions of the same package name.
I have zero extra time or interest in packaging older versions.

Just because fedora pushes new kernels doesn’t mean you need to update it!

Hey Leigh, appreciate the time you take to package these for Fedora. :heart:

It’s a bummer that limitation is there, but it is what it is. For a layperson who relies on the RPMFusion version of the driver, is there a convenient/easy way for me to be able to tell what kernel versions the current driver version supports (or, rather, is compatible with)?

For the most part I just let updates happen when they happen (i.e. automagic updates via Gnome Software) and would be nice to have an idea of which kernels I should keep around while on a particular driver version.
