IIRC, /boot/efi/* is created by the initial anaconda install sequence

it's only about 15MB in size, it's pretty innocuous and I wouldn't
worry about it. Ubuntu's install mechanism isn't the same and it
probably doesn't create that directory unless it notices you are in UEFI
boot mode at the time of install.
What's in yours? Are any of the files owned? Mine is just an empty
directory tree to /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/. I just checked further and
that directory is owned by grub-common, but not the parent directories.
I've just checked my efi directory, and /boot/efi is owned by 'root', as
are directories /boot/efi/EFI and /boot/efi/System and file
/boot/efi/mach_kernel. Drilling a little bit further directories
/boot/efi/EFI/BOOT and /boot/efi/EFI/fedora are also owned by root, as
is directory /boot/efi/System/Library, so I'm assuming everything is.
I'm not concerned so much by the space that structure is using, but more
just querying why it is there, and, if I happen to delete that structure
will that cause any problems, or, if I do delete it is something going
to put it back?

Steve
