systemd-boot calls itself "Linux Boot Manager". Maybe it should brand itself according to /etc/os-release. Upstream issue: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/17044
This seems to have been addressed by the introduction of the new option "--efi-boot-option-description=", which should be available when v252 will be released (hopefully soon).
That helps if you call it manually maybe. I assume the distro will call bootctl install unattended somehow. Eg after package installation to update the bootloader. So it somehow has to remember what to pass. Therefore either a config file is needed or a different value has to be built in.
Note that according to the man page, there is usually no need to change the description "Linux Boot Manager" though.
Well, upstream thinks there's only one instance of sd-boot. In practice it's installed by a specific distribution so in the end different distros will again compete about that entry. So IMO we should still label that with openSUSE.
Ludwig are you OK to close this report ?
I'd like to keep this open to track the missing feature. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
