Description of problem: Fedora 27 installation fails with: "The package 'shim' is required for this installation. This package does not exist. This is a fatal error and installation will be aborted." Screenshot: https://openqa.fedoraproject.org/tests/135285#step/_do_install_and_reboot/22 From anaconda.log: 19:42:54,352 DBG payload: added package requirement 'shim' for bootloader, strong=True From packaging.log: 19:42:54,736 ERR packaging: Missed: NoSuchPackage('shim',) The logs are here: https://openqa.fedoraproject.org/tests/135285#downloads The package seems to got renamed, to shim-signed, I guess. But I don't really know, please investigate. Or reassign this bug to shim maintainer, if you feel like this is a problem on their side. Thanks. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora-Everything-netinst-x86_64-27-20170827.n.0.iso
This looks like a clear blocker.
Adding shim maintainers to CC.
Hello, Could you please confirm the renaming mentioned above? Thanks
Also affects installations on aarch64.
We believe all the remaining issues with grub2 / shim package naming and provides *should* be fixed in the next compose that actually completes (there were two issues, comps needing to be updated again for changed grub2 package names, and some provides missing from shim-signed).
This is confirmed fixed in the recent composes (though there's a remaining issue with anaconda not being updated for the new shim executable names).
