grub2 2.00-13ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

grub2 (2.00-13ubuntu1) raring; urgency=low

  * Resynchronise with Debian.  Remaining changes:
    - Default to hiding the menu; holding down Shift at boot will show it.
    - Add crashkernel option.
    - Bypass menu unless other OSes are installed or Shift is pressed.
    - Allow Shift to interrupt 'sleep --interruptible'.
    - Reduce visual clutter in normal mode.
    - Remove verbose messages printed before reading configuration.
    - Suppress kernel/initrd progress messages, except in recovery mode.
    - Show the boot menu if the previous boot failed.
    - Suppress "GRUB loading" message unless Shift is held down.
    - Check hardware support before using gfxpayload=keep.
    - Set vt.handoff=7 for smooth handoff to kernel graphical mode.
    - In recovery mode, add nomodeset to the Linux kernel arguments, and
      remove the 'set gfxpayload=keep' command.
    - Skip Windows os-prober entries on Wubi systems, and suppress the menu
      by default if those are the only other-OS entries.
    - Handle probing striped DM-RAID devices.
    - Disable cursor as early as possible in grub_main.
  * Drop handling of upgrades from pre-lucid.
  * Don't call update-grub in the zz-update-grub kernel hook if
    /boot/grub/grub.cfg doesn't exist.

grub2 (2.00-13) experimental; urgency=low

  * Backport from upstream:
    - Fix booting FreeBSD >= 9.1 amd64 kernels (closes: #699002).
  * Merge from Ubuntu:
    - Stop using the /usr/share/images/desktop-base/desktop-grub.png
      alternative as the fallback background if GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR is
      "Ubuntu".
    - source_grub2.py: Use attach_default_grub from apport's hookutils.
    - Output a menu entry for firmware setup on UEFI FastBoot systems.
    - Set a monochromatic theme and an appropriate background for Ubuntu.
    - Remove "GNU/Linux" from default distributor string for Ubuntu.
    - Apply Ubuntu GRUB Legacy changes to legacy update-grub script.
    - Apply patch from Fedora to add a "linuxefi" loader which boots kernels
      with EFI handover patches, avoiding ExitBootServices.
    - Temporarily make linuxefi refuse to validate kernels in the absence of
      a shim, until we get some other details worked out.
    - Automatically call linuxefi from linux if secure boot is enabled and
      the kernel is signed, to hand over to the kernel without calling
      ExitBootServices.  Otherwise, linux will fall through to previous
      code, call ExitBootServices itself, and boot the kernel normally.
    - Generate configuration for signed UEFI kernels if available.
    - On Ubuntu amd64, add a raw-uefi custom upload tarball for signing.
    - Install signed images if available and UEFI Secure Boot is enabled.
    - Add "splash" to default boot options on Ubuntu.
