Just recently I noticed that our installation tests had starting failing with that exact same =E2=80=98grub-install=E2=80=99 error that was mentione= d: https://ci.guix.gnu.org/build/3708453/details Cuirass says the culprit is in the 4003c60..daab3da, which indeed includes the e2fsprogs update to 1.47.0. Have you tried upgrading GRUB? I see =E2=80=98guix refresh grub=E2=80=99 f= inds a new version. If fixing the bug is what it takes, we should do that. Thanks for the investigation! Ludo=E2=80=99.
