This is a .spec file to help build -kmod RPM packages.

The facetimehd-kmod-common package includes the firmware extraction scripts and attempts to run them on post-install. Their output is not silenced (which is a bad RPM practice) so the user can see if the download goes wrong.

There is a requirement on cpio >= 2.12 because of the extraction bug present in some RHEL versions.

I have built this driver for a 4.10.0 kernel (cutom built for a RHEL 7 system) and it appears to be working. I've had a minor issue where the driver didn't load automatically when I started Google Hangouts but after a manual modprobe facetimehd the camera was working.
