p.s. what's the point of that search box anyway? if i type in "kernel", i get no hits. what's up with *that*?
It depends on what's selected in the drop down list (Packages, Builds, Users, Tags etc...). If I search for "kernel" with Packages selected, it takes me to http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=8.
ok, that works but there's still some weirdness happening. if i try the same thing with "kernel-devel", i get no hits, even though i *just* downloaded that from koji minutes ago. why wouldn't the "kernel-devel" package be found?
When searching by Package, I believe that means searching by src.rpm name. If you want to search for binary packages (like the packages build from a src.rpm), try changing the search target from "Packages" to "RPMs".
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/search?match=glob&type=rpm&terms=...
and the package i'm really looking for is "kernel-firmware", which is a listed dependency of the koji kernel package. if i can't find the kernel-firmware package, i'm kind of stuck trying to install the kernel package.
I *think* kernel-firmware is a noarch package, you might try adding "--arch noarch" to the koji command.
