[lustre-discuss] rpm names?

i'm confused over the naming change between 2.8 and 2.9, it seems the
kernel version has gotten dropped from the rpm filename.

but the files inside the rpm are still compiled for a specific kernel,
so there's a good chance that kmod-lustre-client will get installed on
a machine that does not have a matching kernel to the directory inside
the rpm

this also means i can't rpmbuild --rebuild the lustre-client src rpm
for several different kernels and keep all the files in the same
directory.

kmod-lustre-client-2.9.0-1.el7.x86_64.rpm

lustre-client-modules-2.8.0-3.10.0_327.3.1.el7.x86_64.x86_64.rpm
lustre-client-2.8.0-3.10.0_327.3.1.el7.x86_64.x86_64.rpm

i looked back through the mailing list, but i don't see any mention of
this change. (i'm not on the lustre developers list)
