Analysis of the problem:
<apachelogger> slangasek, ScottK: I think kubuntu-settings-desktop (providing
etc/default/grub.d/05_kubuntu.cfg) needs to pre-depend grub-pc ...
grub-pc.postinst looks for etc/default/grub OR etc/default/grub.d/* and if
found it will try to read the grub_default_cmdline from there, however since
05_kubuntu does not define the cmdline it ends up empty (as seen on the kubuntu
iso's default/grub)
<apachelogger> grub-installer then runs update-grub on /target and only
afterwards injects "quiet splash" as default without re-running update-grub,
hence why after grub-installer ran the config appears in order on the target
system but the grub.cfg does not
And ramblings on the proposed solution for saucy, pending discussion:
<apachelogger> kubuntu-settings-desktop needs to pre-depend grub
<apachelogger> but since active probably uses -desktop that sounds le fishy
<apachelogger> so perhaps we need kubuntu-settings-grub
<apachelogger> so kubuntu-settings-desktop suggests kubuntu-settings-grub
pre-depends grub-pc
<apachelogger> desktop seed recommends kubuntu-settings-grub
<apachelogger> also that way a user may use something other than grub
