Quick Question: Switched to LTS

I've switched to LTS:

#uname -a
Linux thialfi3 5.10.89-1-lts #1 SMP Sun, 02 Jan 2022 19:43:44 +0000 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I'm booting on EFISTUB and I know that I'm booting to the LTS Kernel.

I want to remove the non-LTS kernel and headers from the pacman upgrade cycle. Is that okay?

I have searched this topic and not found anything. I'm relatively certain it's okay.

Thank you. Arch is my friend.

Re: Quick Question: Switched to LTS

Yes you can do that, all other things that have a direct kernel dependency should either have distinct versions for LTS or be generically manageable via DKMS
