Are you kidding? Please list files that are recreated by grub2-mkconfig.

However, when it comes to Tumbleweed there are only 8 files recreated.

The missing file (in TW) is, for example when kernel 4 was installed, 'symtypes-4-0-0-1.<*>-desktop.gz. This has occurred for previous kernel upgrades so it is not "an ooops" for kernel 4.

Why is that?

I tend not to "kid" when I ask a serious question as I don't consider this list as a "kidding" forum (except when questions are followed by smilies or other emoticons and/or other 'hanky-panky' is going on here :-) ). There is one flaw in my question and that is the statement that there are "9 new files recreated" when 'gurb2-mkconfig' is run. Obviously there must be quite a few more than the 9 which I had in mind. So, from this point of view, Mea Culpa. The 9 new files recreated which I was referring to are to be found in the '/boot' directory. These 9 files are shown here: http://susepaste.org/15791029 and which have '<*>-4.0.1-1.<*>' in their name. As an example, when running 'grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg' in openSUSE 13.2 the above 9 files with '4.0.4-1' are created when a new kernel is installed. However, as my original post states, when a new kernel is installed in Tumbleweed the 'symtypes-4-0-1-1.<*>-desktop.gz' file is NOT created - making it 8 files recreated in TW and 9 in oS. Please let me know if further explanation/examples are needed.
