No, as already discussed, there is a broken installation of grub. The reason Colin reopened this report is because he wants to put in some checks at some point to detect that it's broken and guide you through fixing it. > By the way, talking about @cjwatson, I'm still wating for an answer > to whether or not those of us who were bitten by the bug and and > fixed the broken boot can safely install the updates that have since > been released, and whether the upgrade to 14.10 will bite us again. If you fixed it correctly so the package system knows where it needs to reinstall it in the future, then you won't have the problem again. If you fixed it by manually reinstalling grub outside the package system again, then you will face the problem again. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQEcBAEBCgAGBQJUUE92AAoJENRVrw2cjl5RA1oIAK2UTMf/t6FtADGgK8VPiAma 1nbLe3k3VG4o8M5TmsCi+IPmM+8lcnkdoqChErWX/PG2U9eKxvh25GTMaFFsc5QO iu5u4h7b5v9ROYeCqH3vt4Zj1ifrMKhzORRMkkOv09A1u/6PVKGc0HLIvamFMF4c QcLzgFLwEnPI7uBxkRXLIbO3EIKeVPWF4P7ROc9zAD9ggx6rU33qmNYJpd7by1vd /+V+vc5GqsAOdRaHR00fWHSZ7vkjG1le5pgBaaQEmHEmo3lugJH1Tm8nMfApYeoV 5dEgkgPVeaQWS+u1Lx2RtbNtuAEG1vx37ab3UCVwS39s6IsC97XwDbTOcSE0QxA= =K7FT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- 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
