Please unblock package grub2 We've pulled in some really important fixes for GRUB, that I think are important and should definitely be part of the bookworm release: * Fix an issue where a logical volume rename would lead grub to fail to boot (#987008) * Add a final patch needed to make arm64 Secure Boot work (#1020769) * Backport some upstream patches to fix probing of LUKS2 devices (#1028301), add luks2 to the signed EFI images (#1001248) * Add debconf logic to control os-prober use (#1031594, #1012865, #1025698). This dovetails with an update to grub-installer in d-i. I've also added a small but important change to config_item() in the postinst, which makes things much more robust. Without this, grub-install on systems with Xen installed can fail unexpectedly. And there's a trivial change to not warn about os-prober if it's not installed (#1033657). The os-prober fixes are a major change that I think we need for bookworm. The default has changed in GRUB upstream, and this will cause a lot of user confusion (on new installations particularly) where they're trying to do dual-boot. I'm asking for an unblock *now* for these changes, so that people can review them. The os-prober update includes a new debconf template that we'll want translations for (and hence another/more grub upload(s) before release), but of course they should be ~zero-risk at that point. [x] all changes are documented in the d/changelog [x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them [x] attach debdiff against the package in testing unblock grub2/2.06-12 unblock grub-efi-amd64-signed/1+2.06+12 unblock grub-efi-arm64-signed/1+2.06+12 unblock grub-efi-ia32-signed/1+2.06+12 debdiff attached, filtering out noise from *.po updates.
