Packagers in Linux distributions do a lot to ensure the software you use is up to date, integrated in the platform, and most importantly: works! But one package stands out among the others in importance: the Linux kernel. Over the past few years, I've become a Linux kernel package maintainer for a couple of Linux distributions (notably Fedora Asahi Remix and CentOS Stream Hyperscale). This talk will share my experiences in becoming and being a Linux kernel package maintainer: the good, the bad, and the sometimes ugly.
