Package: grub Version: 0.97-16 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
After an upgrade from 0.97-15 to 0.97-16, I have the following situation: /sbin/grub-install is not found (it should be the transitional wrapper) /usr/sbin/grub-install is the wrapper for grub-install nothing like a /usr/sbin/grub-install.real is found; there is no real grub-install /usr/sbin/grub-install calls itself in an infinite loop as it contains the line: exec /usr/sbin/grub-install $* This prevents grub-install from working at all, making it impossible to install the grub bootloader to the MBR or anywhere.
