Public bug reported:

Scenario: d-i EFI netboot with oem-config/enable=true

Problem: After the install completes and reboots into the OEM
configuration temporary user, there is no icon on the desktop to invoke
oem-config-prepare - indeed, oem-config is not even installed.

Cause: oem-config-udeb installs a finish-install.d script which runs
'apt-install oem-config-gtk ubiquity-frontend-gtk', however this fails.
It turns out to be a dependency issue. ubiquity depends on 'grub-pc |
grub | grub-efi', however grub-efi is now a dummy transitional package
and is not installed (the actual package is grub-efi-amd64). The APT
resolver makes a bad choice, and tries to install grub-pc (the BIOS boot
version), uninstalling the EFI version. This fails, leaving oem-config
not installed.

An adequate (if somewhat inelegant) solution should be to replace grub-
efi in ubiquities dependencies with all possible platform varieties of
grub-efi-<ARCH>.
