grub2 2.02-2ubuntu8.19 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

grub2 (2.02-2ubuntu8.19) bionic; urgency=medium

  * grub-install: cherry-pick patch from grub-devel to make grub-install
    fault tolerant. Create backup of files in /boot/grub, and restore them
    on failure to complete grub-install. LP: #1891680
    Also cherry-pick patch to make atexit work correctly.
  * postinst.in: do not exit successfully when failing to show critical
    grub-pc/install_devices_failed and grub-pc/install_devices_empty
    prompts in non-interactive mode. This enables surfacing upgrade errors
    to the users and/or automation. LP: #1891680 LP: #1896608
  * postinst.in: do not attempt to call grub-install upon fresh install of
    grub-pc because it it a job of installers to do that after fresh
    install. Fixup for the issue unmasked by above. LP: #1891680
  * postinst.in: Fixup postinst.in, to attempt grub-install upon explicit
    dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc. LP: #1892526

Binary packages built by this source

grub-common: GRand Unified Bootloader (common files)

 This package contains common files shared by the distinct flavours of GRUB.
 It is shared between GRUB Legacy and GRUB 2, although a number of files
 specific to GRUB 2 are here as long as they do not break GRUB Legacy.

grub-common-dbgsym: debug symbols for grub-common
grub-coreboot: GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (Coreboot version)

 GRUB is a portable, powerful bootloader. This version of GRUB is based on a
 cleaner design than its predecessors, and provides the following new features:
 .
  - Scripting in grub.cfg using BASH-like syntax.
  - Support for modern partition maps such as GPT.
  - Modular generation of grub.cfg via update-grub. Packages providing GRUB
    add-ons can plug in their own script rules and trigger updates by invoking
    update-grub.
 .
 This package contains a version of GRUB that has been built for use with
 platforms running the Coreboot firmware.

grub-coreboot-bin: GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (Coreboot binaries)

 GRUB is a portable, powerful bootloader. This version of GRUB is based on a
 cleaner design than its predecessors, and provides the following new features:
 .
  - Scripting in grub.cfg using BASH-like syntax.
  - Support for modern partition maps such as GPT.
  - Modular generation of grub.cfg via update-grub. Packages providing GRUB
    add-ons can plug in their own script rules and trigger updates by invoking
    update-grub.
 .
 This package contains a version of GRUB that has been built for use with
 platforms running the Coreboot firmware. It will not automatically install
 GRUB as the active boot loader, nor will it automatically update grub.cfg
 on upgrade, so most people should install grub-coreboot instead.

grub-coreboot-dbg: GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (Coreboot debug files)

 This package contains debugging files for grub-coreboot-bin. You only need
 these if you are trying to debug GRUB using its GDB stub.

grub-efi: GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (dummy package)

 This is a dummy transitional package that depends on either grub-efi-ia32 or
 grub-efi-amd64, depending on the architecture.

grub-efi-amd64: GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (EFI-AMD64 version)

    update-grub.
 .
 This is a dependency package for a version of GRUB that has been built for
 use with the EFI-AMD64 architecture, as used by Intel Macs (unless a BIOS
 interface has been activated). Installing this package indicates that this
 version of GRUB should be the active boot loader.

grub-efi-amd64-bin: GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (EFI-AMD64 modules)

    update-grub.
 .
 This package contains GRUB modules that have been built for use with the
 EFI-AMD64 architecture, as used by Intel Macs (unless a BIOS interface has
 been activated). It can be installed in parallel with other flavours, but
 will not automatically install GRUB as the active boot loader nor
 automatically update grub.cfg on upgrade unless grub-efi-amd64 is also
 installed.

grub-efi-amd64-dbg: GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (EFI-AMD64 debug files)

 invoking it.
 .
 This package behaves in the same way as GRUB for coreboot, but doesn't
 contain any code from coreboot itself, and is only suitable for QEMU. If
 you want to install GRUB as firmware on real hardware, you need to use the
 grub-coreboot package, and manually combine that with coreboot.
