While I sympathise, the problem at the head of this bug seems like a good reason. I'm not keen on unpicking the GRUB changes that caused it to care about this (it was probably the mountinfo parsing, and that was introduced for good reasons), and I'm not keen on adding even more maintainer script complication to grub-pc. If you have a better suggestion, I'm all ears. -- Colin Watson [[email protected]] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
