Description Daniel Rusek 2018-01-09 14:38:07 UTC
Description of problem:
This happens on our qe stable systems using RHEL 7 Server. The grub2-mkconfig is broken when /etc/grub.d/15_ostree from the ostree-grub2 package is present.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ostree-grub2-2017.11-1.el7.x86_64
ostree-2017.11-1.el7.x86_64

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enable the rhel-7-server-extras-rpms repository (if not enabled).
2. Install the ostree-grub2 package.
3. Run "grub2-mkconfig".

Actual results:
# grub2-mkconfig -o grub2.test.conf
Generating grub configuration file ...
Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-3.10.0-693.11.6.el7.x86_64
Found initrd image: /boot/initramfs-3.10.0-693.11.6.el7.x86_64.img

Found initrd image: /boot/initramfs-0-rescue-cf736dd67a663e8425c5cdf11117ec68.img
error: opendir(ostree/repo): No such file or directory

Expected results:
# grub2-mkconfig -o grub2.test.conf
Generating grub configuration file ...
Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-3.10.0-693.11.6.el7.x86_64

done

Additional info:
If the /etc/grub.d/15_ostree config file is removed, grub2-mkconfig works without any issues.

Comment 1 Red Hat Bugzilla Rules Engine 2018-01-09 14:38:10 UTC
Since this bug report was entered in Red Hat Bugzilla, the release flag has been set to ? to ensure that it is properly evaluated for this release.

Comment 2 Colin Walters 2018-01-09 14:40:40 UTC
Hmm, we can probably make ostree-grub2 a no-op if the system isn't booted using ostree but...why did you install it?

Comment 3 Daniel Rusek 2018-01-09 15:10:19 UTC
We have everything from the repository installed on our stable systems, so we can find all the possible issues when testing new packages.

Comment 4 Colin Walters 2018-01-09 15:24:07 UTC
Do you have any issues making everything this bug public so I can reference it in fixes?

Comment 5 Daniel Rusek 2018-01-09 16:06:34 UTC
Done.
