  * Restore legacy version of grub-set-default, now moved to
    /usr/lib/grub-legacy.

This bug was fixed in the package grub2 - 1.97~beta1-1ubuntu4

---------------
grub2 (1.97~beta1-1ubuntu4) karmic; urgency=low

  * Move grub-reboot and grub-set-default to grub-$platform, since
    grub-common is also used by GRUB Legacy (LP: #424425).
