@sthen with a `pyproject.toml` file in place, we should probably clarified whether `setup.py` and `setup.cfg` and `bin/offlineimap` can maybe be dropped altogether. @thekix are these files strictly needed for anything...

Hi @bartland, for a first quick reply: This could be differences in GRUB packaging across distros. It's `/usr/lib/grub/x86_64-efi/` on Gentoo and elsewhere last time I checked. Could you help out...

@bartland thank you! I'm starting to think that with regard to the File System Hierarchy (FHS) standard `/usr/share` is the wrong place for these files because it's containing architecture dependent...

Hi @bartland, thanks for trying and sharing these details! I would guess it's one of those `/usr/share/qemu/*.bin` files? In some sense `grub2-theme-preview` has support for this: https://github.com/hartwork/grub2-theme-preview/blob/ac6d9c4ed7bc008dad5ff7e9bcdbc527ea6b5ce5/grub2_theme_preview/__main__.py#L375-L392 Could you play...

@bartland PPPS: I found this in the mean time: - https://build.opensuse.org/projects/openSUSE:Leap:15.3:Update/packages/libvirt.22291/files/suse-ovmf-paths.patch?expand=0 - https://powersnail.com/2022/grub2-theme-preview-opensuse/ They don't agree but very interesting.

@bartland thanks for sharing your findings! So grub doesn't even want to start? Your hardware supports EFI and KVM and KVM is enabled in the kernel, correct? I'm starting to...

@bartland can we rule out that it's the way we're starting QEMU? Can we rule out that the EFI output of `grub-mkrescue` is broken on openSUSE? Could you attach the...

> In case it's relevant - everything is grub2 not grub. e.g. @bartland yes, it was renamed to to grub-mkrescue in Gentoo after GRUB 1.x was removed, it's all 2.x,...
