[$] Fedora approves a smaller GRUB

Leo Sandoval and Marta Lewandowska have put forward a change proposal for Fedora 45, which is expected in October, to provide a separate, slimmed-down version of GRUB for a niche use case. The new package would be in addition to the main GRUB package and would not replace it for the majority of Fedora users. The idea met with some resistance from Fedora contributors who thought that it would be better to use systemd-boot, or another modern bootloader, rather than trying to wrangle GRUB into a suitable state for the use case. The Fedora Engineering Steering Council (FESCo), however, voted to accept the change on July 7.
