That make sense.  I am trying to upgrade grub-pc which then prompts for the 
hard drive where / is mounted.  When I type in debconf-show grub-pc I get a 
number of variables, including "install_devices".  I expect this to be 
something like /dev/sda or dev/nvme0n1p1, but instead it reads something 
similar to "/dev/disk/by-id/ata-LITEONIT_LCS256M6S......  

This is what I expected to do with the debconf module:

ansible.builtin.debconf:
    name: grub-pc 
   question:  Grub Install devices
   value: /dev/nvme0n1p1  (or whatever ansible facts gives me)
  vtype: select 

Is that correct or do I have to someone figure out the /dev/disk/by-id..... 
variable?
