[yocto] How to temporarily disable a package rebuild during an image build?

[Adam Lee]

I am not sure if that's the correct behaviour at all. If you are building
the kernel, it should only build the kernel (and its deps).
How are you building it? I suppose you are doing 'bitbake virtual/kernel',
but just checking!
