init-select contains a grub config snippet that unconditionally runs a
command, which will cause failures (in update-grub and friends) if
init-select was removed but not purged.
This was noticed on jessie->stretch upgrades of coreboot where
init-select was installed in jessie (but gets removed during the upgrade
to stretch).
I verified the bug and fix in a jessie chroot with
* apt-get install init-select
* apt-get remove init-select
* apt-get install grub-coreboot
init-select is not in stretch and has now been removed from sid as well.
