Package: grub-common
Version: 1.98~20100115-1
Severity: normal
on a powerpc system, with grub-common installed (but no
grub-ieee1275), grub-mkrescue fails with this message:
cd: 94: can't cd to /usr/lib/grub/powerpc-ieee1275/
This suggests to me that a dependencies might be missing, as it looks
like grub-ieee1275 is needed for this command to complete.
A workaround for a user is:
aptitude download grub-ieee1275
mkdir grub-ieee1275
dpkg --extract grub-ieee1275_*.deb
grub-mkrescue --pkglibdir=$(pwd)/grub-ieee1275/usr/lib/grub/powerpc-ieee1275
But it seems like most users of grub-common would want to have the
associated package for their architecture. Perhaps grub-common should
Recommend: grub-ieee1275 for the powerpc architecture, so that
grub-mkrescue will work by default?
Thanks for grub!
