I've been a Fedora packager for probably 10 years now (need to check!) but
I *STILL* don't really understand modules other than at a high level (it
lets you use dependencies that aren't available in the main repos). I've
read through some of the documentation but it's still not clear. I know I
would have to crate some kind of module file which I think tools could be
developed to mostly automate (spec->module template converter?).
You can view them as virtual repositories with dependencies. I
think that might be the simplest way to put it.
You can try playing with fedmod to generate your modulemd file or
you can just write it from scratch; it's not all that complicated.
