I run yay casually today and I saw a GRUB update so I went ahead and did it. If I’m not mistaken, @dalto helped me create a pacman hook to automate the grub-install and grub-mkconfig command running, but the hook (apparently) failed and I ran these manually.
Here’s the output I got:
(12/15) Reinstall GRUB on update...
call to execv failed (No such file or directory)
error: command failed to execute correctly
(13/15) Updating icon theme caches... # Also this failed as it seems
gtk-update-icon-cache: The generated cache was invalid.
error: command failed to execute correctly
And here’s the hook itself:
[Trigger]
Operation = Upgrade
Type = Package
Target = grub
[Action]
Description = Reinstall GRUB on update...
When = PostTransaction
Depends = grub
Exec = sh -c "grub-install --no-nvram && grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg"
Is it a pacman or yay issue or did I do something wrong?

Two things. First, it looks like you have multiple commands failing. Can we see the full output from the update instead of just that snippet?
You could also try replacing sh with /usr/bin/sh in the Exec line

Try using the full path to sh in the hook as described above.

Done, now I’ll have to wait for another update I guess
