It seems reasonable to consider this a grubby bug, yes?


Considering grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg produces the exact
correct result, guess I'm not understanding the purpose of grubby. Are
we in transition?

grubby is less 'drastic' that grub2-mkconfig. it takes the existing
config and appends a new entry to it. grub2-mkconfig blows away the
config and starts over again each time.

i don't recall whether we ever made a specific decision to keep using
grubby over grub2-mkconfig or whether it's just inertia, though. pjones
might.

We definitely want to keep using grubby instead of running grub2-mkconfig and
clobbering whatever's in your config file every time.

Has somebody filed a bz about this issue?  I haven't seen one referenced in the
thread.
