Stock linux sorts first in pacman queries, so DKMS was picking linux-headers even after linux-ptl or linux-t2 replaced it.
The old pacman -Qqs | head -1 query preferred stock linux whenever it was still installed beside linux-ptl.

Summary
linuxsorts first inpacmanqueries, so NVIDIA DKMS was takinglinux-headerseven whenlinux-ptlorlinux-t2was the kernel we just swapped in. The Broadcom, Tuxedo, Motorcomm, and xpadneo leaves hardcodedlinux-headersthe same way, which can drag stocklinuxback onto a Panther Lake machine.omarchy-pkg-linux-headersprefers flavor kernels, then stock, and those DKMS installers share it.Test plan
