Problem upgrading and installing virtualbox-modules

Have some problems upgrading and installing virtualbox-modules

[elgringo@compjotr Desktop]$ sudo pacman -S community/virtualbox-modules
resolving dependencies...
looking for inter-conflicts...
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: lirc: requires kernel26>=2.6.26-1
:: nvidia: requires kernel26>=2.6.26-1

Had to uninstall lirc nvidia and virtualbox-modules before I could upgrade the kernel and now I can't install the virtualbox-modules.

Anyone else who experienced the same problems?

Re: Problem upgrading and installing virtualbox-modules

virtualbox-modules depends on the kernel in core. If you want to use the kernel in testing, you'll need to rebuild the virtualbox-modules against it.

Virtualbox-modules will be fixed when kernel 2.6.26 will be moved in core. So you can wait if you prefer.
