Hello

A couple of days ago I have installed the gentoo-kernel package, to have some modules build in. At the moment I do not need these modules anymore and these can be left as dynamic modules, not built-in.

I wanted to switch from gentoo-kernel package to gentoo-kernel-bin, but emerge has given me a blocked packages message.

Code:

emerge --ask --verbose gentoo-kernel-bin

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
Dependency resolution took 1.72 s (backtrack: 0/20).

For more information about Blocked Packages, please refer to the following
section of the Gentoo Linux x86 Handbook (architecture is irrelevant):

How would it be better to proceed. First deselect gentoo-kernel with emerge --deselect gentoo-kernel then emerge --ask --verbose gentoo-kernel-bin? This is what I was thinking of doing, but was unsure.

Hello!
this is right. deselect gentoo-kernel, deepclean, then you can emerge -av gentoo-kernel-bin
