Comment 1 Peter Jones 2018-02-06 16:33:21 UTC 
Can you get an "strace -s 1024 -o efibootmgr.strace efibootmgr ..." of the efibootmgr run that creates this entry?  My suspicion is something in sysfs changed and we're not parsing some symlink correctly any more on that hardware.

strace -s 1024 -o efibootmgr.strace efibootmgr -c -w -L Fedora-test -d /dev/sda -p 1 -l /EFI/fedora/shimaa64.efi
Comment 3 Paul Whalen 2018-02-06 19:51:44 UTC 
This seems to break with efivar-33-2.fc28, moving to efivar.
Comment 4 Fedora End Of Life 2018-02-20 15:34:20 UTC 
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 28 development cycle.
Changing version to '28'.
Comment 5 Paul Whalen 2018-02-27 21:24:14 UTC 
Verified fixed in efivar-34-1.fc28. Many thanks!

I guess this BZ should have status MODIFIED now.
