Hi Felix,

I have been testing out systemd-boot on a test machine as well as testing switching \
back to grub2.

When I install systemd-boot then it has a conflict and I choose to uninstall \
suse-module-tools-scriptlets and install sdbootutil-rpm-scripts and when I switch \
back to grub2 on the test system then I switch back to suse-module-tools-scriptlets.  \
Both cannot be installed at the same time because of the conflict.
