And that is exactly why the kmods provided by ElRepo.are not built against kernel-(lt,ml). Those kernels do not provide a stable kernel ABI.and therefore the idea of using the weak-module technology whhich lies behind the kmods cannot be used at all. The modules would need to be rebuilt after rach kernel upgrade
