You mentioned in a previous email that there was a rescue kernel. That one isn't tracked by any package. You can delete the files and the next kernel install will update it with the latest kernel.
The rescue kernel is not the issue here. I included it in the grub menu list for completeness.
It wasn't clear that it was a separate entry since it didn't have a version.
The /boot/loader/entries/ kernel listing matches the grub menu, but not the rpm -qa kernel-core output.
It would, since that's where the grub menu list comes from.
What I want for the kernels:
the grub menu
the rpm -qa kernel-core output
the /boot listing
the /boot/loader/entries/ listing
to all match, and all out-of-date files gone.
Remove the files for the entry that doesn't have a kernel package.
Here's what I did:
-----
-bash.1[~]: cd /boot/loader/entries/
-bash.2[entries]: ls

That's what you meant, right?
I don't know why you have a kernel package without a grub entry, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's related the entry that doesn't have a package. After a couple more kernel updates it should all match.
I get the impression from what you say that my having removed the "kernel" package, though wrong, will not cause problems for future weekly patches. Is my impression correct?
Yes, but I would recommend installing it again.
So how do I install the "meta package" "kernel" only for 6.6.2-101.fc38.x86_64?
Now I'll reboot and see what matches and what does not match, and report back in a separate post.
