I use systemd-boot, so I try to avoid having unneeded GRUB packages

grub2-tools-extra get installed, even though they aren't required by
any of my other installed packages.
I already have install_weak_deps=False set in dnf.conf.
Anyone have any idea why DNF is installing these packages?
For some reason, grub2-tools-efi and grub2-tools-extra obsolete
grub2-tools, and they get pulled in on every update. This is arguably
a packaging bug, and I suggest that you file a bug report.
