GuestAdditions after kernel-update

Hi, I set up a Linux guest in VirtualBox, using the Fedora distribution.

I installed the GuestAdditions after installing kernel-devel and gcc packages.
Fine...

But today, an kernel-update occurred. After the update it seems that the GuestAddition kernel-modules aren't rebuilt yet. Is there any way to configure the system that the modules will be rebuild each kernel-update? I don't want to install the Additions every time.

dkms should handle the automatic rebuild (if it is installed :wink: )
