@nightromantic, @xtym
Thank you for your feedback.
I know it’s nothing serious, it’s just annoying. The service looks dead.
From journalctl, I am getting the following error since Nov 23rd:
Nov 26 18:53:29 wasteland systemd[1]: Starting Firmware update daemon...

Running info on the rpm yields something strange:
[xxx@wasteland ~]$ sudo dnf info fwupd

It seems that the same version is available. Re-installing gives an error:

So probably I just have to wait for an update… or downgrade it.
On a side note, looking at the journalctl for fwupd, for dates before Nov 23, I have the following:
Nov 22 19:13:37 wasteland systemd[1]: Starting Firmware update daemon...
Nov 22 19:13:37 wasteland fwupd[2379]: 18:13:37:0897 FuPluginUefi /boot/efi does not have sufficient space, required 33.6 MB, got 27.1 MB
Nov 22 19:13:43 wasteland systemd[1]: Started Firmware update daemon.
Nov 22 21:16:03 wasteland systemd[1]: fwupd.service: Succeeded.
How can I instruct grub to keep only current and one more kernel? I don’t need to have 3 or 4 kernels to fall back. But I need space on my /boot drive:
/dev/sda1 96M 71M 26M 74% /boot/efi
Thanks
