[SOLVED] grub-mkconfig broken

Hi, I'm new to the forum and I am not completely sure if this is the right place to post this issue, but here goes nothing.
I have just finished installing a root on zfs system with an UEFI partition and it went quite smoothly, I'm not new to this and I have had a couple of debian roots on zfs.
Everything is in order, the system boots fine and all but whenever I try to call grub-mkconfig this happens:

# sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg                                                                               
Generating grub configuration file ...
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/etc/grub.d/05_zfs_linux.py", line 847, in <module>
    for en in Generator().generate_grub_entries():
  File "/etc/grub.d/05_zfs_linux.py", line 684, in generate_grub_entries
    grub_entry = GrubLinuxEntry(
  File "/etc/grub.d/05_zfs_linux.py", line 109, in __init__
    self.linux_root_dataset = os.path.join(
  File "/usr/lib/python3.10/posixpath.py", line 90, in join
    genericpath._check_arg_types('join', a, *p)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.10/genericpath.py", line 152, in _check_arg_types
    raise TypeError(f'{funcname}() argument must be str, bytes, or '
TypeError: join() argument must be str, bytes, or os.PathLike object, not 'NoneType'

I have already tried to reinstall the grub package, reinstall grub on my ESP and commenting out the changes I made to the /etc/default/grub file but nothing changed.
I tried searching a bit but I found nothing and I cannot debug my self what is going on to be fair.

My system configuration is as follows:

# lsblk

As for the /etc/default/grub

Re: [SOLVED] grub-mkconfig broken

Maybe the script is expecting ESP to be on /boot/efi or /efi

Re: [SOLVED] grub-mkconfig broken

Where is the ZFS python script from? Why do you think you need it?

Re: [SOLVED] grub-mkconfig broken

Is there a way to verify this ? because 1st time I ran it there were no issues at all. Now something happened and I don't know what

I presume... If you hae a look at the sources of the script, there should be somewhere some indications of what's the path it needs. (please have a look at what V1del wrote)

Re: [SOLVED] grub-mkconfig broken

I don't know why but I assumed it had to do with zfs-dkms, instead is from zedenv-grub and I don't actually use it. So uninstalling it solved the issue. Many thanks
