Guys, finally the boottool series was applied:

https://github.com/autotest/autotest/commit/9e37dae04b1ce761f24677f2a230fa701941a36f
https://github.com/autotest/autotest/commit/2d3a8d602dd239a22daf05f1124c0f21b4ed6548
https://github.com/autotest/autotest/commit/67d53d06dfc6ab7ee24bcf7ccd530050d9e1bb2c
https://github.com/autotest/autotest/commit/4e27a22a49efc46066f77c7a105c6e8562b086f4
https://github.com/autotest/autotest/commit/6a15572d5307fa0b37759f4f3e7d6076dd1a0470

What does this mean?

Autotest used a perl based tool to manage bootloader entries, but the
tool did not support grub2. So when Fedora started to use grub2, we took
the opportunity to rewrite the whole thing and ditch the perl based boot
tool. As a side effect, now it supports installing kernels on newer
Ubuntu too (and well, Opensuse and what else).

Cleber and myself worked a lot on this for a long time, the code was
worked on, fixed, rebased and tested ad nauseam. We tried to cover the
original set of functionality and be careful, but I'm sure you'll find
plenty of problems, though. Just make sure you report them so we can get
things sorted out for autotest 0.14.0.

Cheers,

Lucas
