The package named "kernel-source" no longer exists. It's dead, kaput,
gone to the great bit bucket in the sky and joined the (digitized) choir
eternal.

Your install script is not compatible with current versions of Fedora
Core. Actually, "kernel-source" got renamed "kernel-sourcefiles" in a
prior release, so it's been quite a while since there was an RPM named
"kernel-source" available. If you can't hack the script not to require
the presence of an installed package named "kernel-source", then I
suggest you take a basic "hello world" program, build an RPM out of it,
and name that RPM "kernel-source".
