Using the Manjaro Setting Manager I attempted to update to Kernel 5.9.3-1.
As shown below there is a problem with building the ZFS module (how to fix that?),
the more important issue that when the compiling of the ZFS module failed, the build process did not stop. It continued as if there was no error. It went a head and added the aberrant kernel to the grub boot menu.
The build should stop on an error, not silently continue as if nothing happened.
