[factory] pre-UEFI systems now require additional UEFI+ components???

Nothing prevents you from installing suse-module-tools-scriptlets. Whether it should be default is certainly subject to discussion.
I'd expect it would still be, at least as long as sd-boot officially becomes the bootloader of choice in openSUSE. Martin

Then something needs Suggests: suse-module-tools-scriptlets As it is global setting it probably should go into openSUSE-release.

So far sdbootutil-rpm-scriptlets conflicted with grub2. So unless the system in question uses a custom boot loader I don't see how there's even a choice. cu Ludwig -- (o_ Ludwig Nussel //\ V_/_ http://www.suse.com/ SUSE Software Solutions Germany GmbH; GF: Ivo Totev, Andrew McDonald, Werner Knoblich; HRB 36809 (AG Nürnberg)

Nothing prevents you from installing suse-module-tools-scriptlets. Whether it should be default is certainly subject to discussion.
I'd expect it would still be, at least as long as sd-boot officially becomes the bootloader of choice in openSUSE.

Then something needs
Suggests: suse-module-tools-scriptlets
So far sdbootutil-rpm-scriptlets conflicted with grub2. So unless the system in question uses a custom boot loader I don't see how there's even a choice.
Well, "no bootloader" is a valid choice in YaST, but I agree, this should be rather niche case.

Is it intended that all TW installations now must include these *efi* and related packages?

Hi Felix, One thing I found interesting in your issue is that it wants to install the following 3 packages sdbootutil 1+git20240215.cb7e392-1.1 sdbootutil-rpm-scriptlets 1+git20240215.cb7e392-1.1 systemd-boot 254.9-2.1 Those are for switching from grub2 to systemd-boot for your bootloader. I suspect TW will switch at some point and know work has been done but have not seen anything saying that is happening anytime soon. I have been helping a friend debug an issue with their system because they keep getting some of the systemd-boot components installed after doing a zypper dup but we have been uanble to determine what is triggering their install as they have always used grub2 and never installed any of the systemd-boot components. I wonder if my friends issue is also what you are seeing here with those systemd components being installed... I've tried looking for requires/recommends that would trigger it but have not found anything so far. -- Regards, Joe

I think the connection is perl-bootloader is in process of being phased out, being replaced by either suse-module-tools-scriptlets and/or sdbootutil-rpm-scriptlets and related bootloader rpm-macros packages changes. -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science.

Hi Felix, I have been testing out systemd-boot on a test machine as well as testing switching back to grub2. When I install systemd-boot then it has a conflict and I choose to uninstall suse-module-tools-scriptlets and install sdbootutil-rpm-scripts and when I switch back to grub2 on the test system then I switch back to suse-module-tools-scriptlets. Both cannot be installed at the same time because of the conflict. -- Regards, Joe
