Yes, that seems to be the solution, though you should check the bug.

When you see an error like this - where it's complaining about packages from f26 when upgrading to f27 - the mentioned packages themselves are not the problem. What you need to ask is "why are grub2 and grub2-tools not being updated to f27 versions?" And in this case the answer is "because the old grub2-efi-modules requires grub2-tools of a matching version, and nothing is causing the old grub2-efi-modules package to be removed because nothing obsoletes or provides grub2-efi-modules , so dnf is trying to keep it around, and that's why it wants to keep the old grub2 and grub2-tools". One of the other bug reports you closed is actually a different bug of a similar type: nothing obsoletes/provides grub2-efi on i686. I have cleaned up and consolidated the bug reports and poked pjones about them.
