Hello everyone!
I am trying to apply a patch to grub2-2.06-2.fc34 and to make a package out of it. To do
so I'm using fedpkg for the most part, but when I come to the point of building the
package with "fedpkg local" one of the subpackages seems missing:
grub2-pc-modules.noarch
This unfortunately makes impossible to replace the whole grub package set with the newly
compiled packages, as dnf rightfully complains the missing one (see below for installed vs
built packages).
Weirdly enough, searching for "pc-modules" among the rpm source files does not
return any result, while searching just "modules" shows some code used to build
other packages (such as grub2-efi-x64-modules). It doesn't look like anything related
to "pc-modules" exists in the code in the first place.
Is there something I am not doing right? I can see other .noarch subpackages are built
just fine in the process.
Thanks to anyone who can help me clear this up :)

I am not a maintainer of grub2 package, however looking at the spec file,
you have to read deeply "grub.macros" file. Especially grep
"with_legacy_modules"
in "grub.macros" file.
i.e. -pc-modules subpackage will be built not on x86_64 arch, but on i686 arch.
You have to pass "--arch i686" option to "fedpkg local", perhaps.
