** Description changed: + [SRU justification] + If users install the grub-pc package on a machine booted under Secure Boot, the system will still be bootable but there will be avoidable package upgrade errors when installing a new version of the shim-signed package. We should ensure that UEFI users don't accidentally get their package system into a wedged state, by ensuring shim-signed pulls in the necessary efi grub package as a dependency and calls grub-install in a way that works reliably even when grub-pc has been installed. + + [Test case] + 1. Install on a machine that boots using UEFI. + 3. Install the grub-pc package. + 4. Upgrade to the shim-signed package from -updates. + 5. Verify that the upgrade fails. + 6. Install the shim-signed package from -proposed. + 7. Verify that the upgrade succeeds. + + [Regression potential] + Minimal. The --target=x86_64-efi option to grub-install is supported in all relevant versions, and adding it explicitly should not cause any failures in scenarios where the shim-signed package is currently working. + + Upgrade from 13.04 to 13.10 broke off. Warning about possibly unusable system appeared.
