By adding a dkms_version conditional it's now possible to specify
an exact version of dkms. This is used by the Fedora and EPEL
yum repositories to ensure the patched version of dkms provided
by the repository is installed. The patched version of dkms
ensures that the spl modules are built before the zfs modules.

For the DKMS package to successfully build the kernel-devel
headers must be included along gcc, make, and perl. The ZFS
code never directly invokes perl but the kernel build system
depends on it.

Because the zfs-dkms package also provides zfs-kmod for the
zfs user package yum flags this as a conflict. To avoid the
problem remove the Conflicts tag from zfs-dkms and just rely
on the one in zfs-kmod.
zfs-dkms-0.6.0-rc14.fc18.noarch has installed conflicts
zfs-kmod: zfs-dkms-0.6.0-rc14.fc18.noarch

The spl, zfs-test, and zfs-dracut packages should be pulled in
by the core zfs package. This allows all the required zfs packages
to be installed from a yum repository by running:
yum install zfs

Adding the 'spl-dkms = VERSION' dependency to the zfs-dkms
package ensures the spl will be installed before zfs. This
cleanly handles the initial 'yum localinstall' case.
However, this does not address the dkms rebuilds caused by
a new kernel being installed. For that we still rely on the
clunky --with-spl-timeout=<timeout> configure option which
allows the zfs compilation to be briefly delayed while the
spl components are built.

Refresh the existing RPM packaging to conform to the 'Fedora
Packaging Guidelines'. This includes adopting the kmods2
packaging standard which is used fod kmods distributed by
rpmfusion for Fedora/RHEL.
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelineshttp://rpmfusion.org/Packaging/KernelModules/Kmods2
While the spec files have been entirely rewritten from a
user perspective the only major changes are:
* The Fedora packages now have a build dependency on the
rpmfusion repositories. The generic kmod packages also
have a new dependency on kmodtool-1.22 but it is bundled
with the source rpm so no additional packages are needed.
* The kernel binary module packages have been renamed from
zfs-modules-* to kmod-zfs-* as specificed by kmods2.
* The is now a common kmod-zfs-devel-* package in addition
to the per-kernel devel packages. The common package
contains the development headers while the per-kernel
package contains kernel specific build products.
