I have no idea how I would do this for OpenAFS. On the other hand,
OpenAFS right now doesn't ship binary kernel module packages since doing
so with the ever changing package names is really too hard. I'd love to
change that, but there doesn't seem to be a lot of progress on providing a
mechanism to do so.
