Yes because that upload was meant for experimental as you can see from the version number and not unstable. Was my mistake and that got reverted. Though actually the wrong sid upload had 1.97+experimental.20091213-1 as version. The 1.98~ is now used due to that. Upstream merged this fix into the trunk branch after the latest sid upload. So for now you either have to use the Debian experimental package which is also avaible via my PPA with the Ubuntu changes merged in or compile it yourself. -- Felix Zielcke Proud Debian Maintainer and GNU GRUB developer -- Current grub-pc takes several minutes to show menu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/420933 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
