I assume you have a script in /etc/portage/env/sys-kernel to build the
kernel during normal emerge, this is getting stuck because genkernel
is calling another emerge instance and the hook is holding a lock.
genkernel needs to be called with --no-module-rebuild in that case,
then you need to manually call emerge @module-rebuild
I tried "genkernel --no-module-rebuild
--kernel-config=/etc/kernels/kernel-config-6.1.19-gentoo-x86_64 all" and this
did result in a succesful compilation. Doing an emerge afterwards finished
emerging the last four remaining packages. Will see if this fixes it going
forward as well!
Thank you all for the suggestions!
