I disagree that preinst changes are needed. I have fixed error reporting in non-interactive postinst case.
And made grub-install resilient, w.r.t. operating against non-existent devices or devices that refuse writing to. In all such cases, backup is created and restored. Thus there is no need to abort at preinst. Consistency between MBR & /boot is required and fixed here, without reimplementing postinst in preinst. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1891680 Title: grub-pc needs to detect when debconf points to invalid drive and stop in preinst, before unpacking files, and also treat this as a failure in postinst To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1891680/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
