Public bug reported:

Upgrading a root on zfs system will break this system. This is for:

- 22.04 -> 22.10
- 22.10 -> 23.04
- 23.04 -> 23.10
- 23.10 -> 24.04

- 22.04 -> 24.04

Workaround: set all grub packages on "hold" before upgrading.
If you do not, you'll lose booting possibilities, wrecking your system.

This is for UEFI-Booted system as for BIOS booted systems, as long as
these are installed with root on zfs.

It is for UEFI-Booted systems regardless they are installed with root on
zfs or llvm+ext4.
