@cjwatson again, could you please tell us whether or not it is safe to install the latest grub updates for those of us who had the bug, had the boot broken, and had fixed it?
The problem is: there are updates available and I have no idea whether installing them will cause the same thing to run which screwed up the boot on dist upgrade. I appreciate comments made by other users but they don't calrify this point. I understand you cannot guarantee whether anything bad will happen or not by updating grup, but given it's you who maintains the package, you should easily know whether or not: 1 - merely installing the updates will run the same scripts that ran on distupgrade which screwed up some boot configurations 2 - the issue has been addressed in any way so that even if (1) is the case, it may not cause the disaster any more Obviously I won't take the risk if (2) is true, but I'd rather keep grub up to date if (1) is false. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1289977 Title: Ubuntu 14.04 Update breaks grub, resulting in "error: symbol 'grub_term_highlight_color' not found" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1289977/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
