I issued a sudo dnf update --refresh
and among I very long output I spotted this error.

Is there anything I need to urgently do before next reboot?
Thank you for a prompt reply

This is reported in RedHat Bugzilla, for Fedora and REDHAT against KERNEL :
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1625124
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1683128
Conclusion
sudo grub2-editenv create
Then for EFI
sudo grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg
or for BIOS
sudo grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
And then attempt again to install your kernel or your update.

Nothing to do.
Complete!
(this is not important but I guess I have to redo the changes suggested here in my closed question about setting the default boot to windows, maybe related)

Now I’m going to reboot and mark this as solved if no issues arise… hope so
Edit
Rebooted, all fine but I have to do again this activity .
I’ll mark as closed after that in a few minutes…
Sorry, I don’t understand what to do now…
this is what I see
[giuliohome@localhost ~]$ sudo cat /boot/grub2/grubenv
[sudo] password for giuliohome:
