minor bug in grub2-mkconfig: "-v" OPTION does not work, but "--version"

Greetings,
I'm using Fedora 28:
uname -a: Linux cylon 4.18.18-200.fc28.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Nov 12 03:17:32 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

How to see the bug:

address@hidden fedora]# grub2-mkconfig -v
Unrecognized option `-v'    <-- not expected
Usage: grub2-mkconfig [OPTION]
Generate a grub config file

  -o, --output=FILE       output generated config to FILE [default=stdout]
  -h, --help              print this message and exit
  -v, --version           print the version information and exit

Report bugs to <address@hidden>.

address@hidden fedora]# grub2-mkconfig --version
grub2-mkconfig (GRUB) 2.03  <-- expected
address@hidden fedora]#



I have other questions about grub2-mkconfig:
Why does grub2-mkconfig  produce a grub.cfg  file that is different from the one produced by dnf --refresh update ?

I have two copies of Fedora 28 on different drives, different only in the partition uuid's and the fstab partition labels. os-prober finds the "clone", but does not recognize the /etc/default/grub option GRUB_DISABLE_SUBMENU on the clone

Where should I direct this question / discussion ?

Thank you very much.
