"grub.efi" has to be a one-size fits all. It is digitally signed at build time, so cannot be adapted to a particular install situation. And there is no "btrfs" subvolume for people not using "btrfs".
Yes, this is risky to break things which reminds me of resistance of doing it unless really necessary to.
By contrast, the "grubx64.efi" (which is a copy of "/boot/grub2/x86_64-efi/core.efi" is built at install time as part of installing grub2, so it is adapted to what you need.
Yes, I agree that this bug should probably be closed. But I prefer to leave that to someone from the openSUSE development team. Perhaps they need to add a more detailed description as to what that "secure boot support" flag does in Yast bootloader.
It means we'll install every bits necessary to boot from secure boot enabled firmware, but using unsigned kernel is not possible (So by no means you'll ever need 'linux' here). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
