Describe the package

Any chance to include the acpi_ec kmod package?
it provides /dev/ec which is used to control fans and other features in several MSI laptops
upstream: https://github.com/saidsay-so/acpi_ec
there is a repo which contains required files to build: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/maximmaxim345/nbfc-linux/package/acpi_ec-kmod/

I am trying to deploy bluefin on a machine(an Acer Nitro) and it needs the acpi_ec kmod (from the same upstream repo above) for other software like NBFC to work.
However, the COPR repo with all the required packages is here.
Thanks for your work and for looking into this.

I have a Gigabyte Aero 15 laptop and no way to control my fans. I need NBFC to work and neither ec_sys nor acpi_ec are available in the Fedora kernel. I don't have the expertise to add any of these modules to akmod and would highly appreciate if it would be included. It will help a lot of folks with computers by manufacturers with horrible Linux support such as Gigabyte.
Thank you so much!
