+# NOTE.
+# This specfile has additions so it can build against a stock-fedora kernel
+# (see the section that defines 'percent' below)
+# However this is not used, since we use the stock fedora kernel starting with f16
+# which provides for the atheros drivers as part of the kernel rpm already
+# also, the release of madwifi for which this addition was made (20100921)
+# does not seem to build against the stock fedora kernel anyway
+# 
+#
 # kernel_release, kernel_version and kernel_arch are expected to be set by the build to e.g.
 # kernel_release : 24.onelab  (24 is then the planetlab taglevel)
 # kernel_version : 2.6.27.57 | 2.6.32  (57 in the 27 case is the patch level)
