I disagree racb -- using the `.d` directory is generally the approach CPC has used for all configuration. that way users can easily see what is package maintained and what is changed in the build process. I don't think the suggestion that CPC change that general guidance because grub.d is less well known that other `.d` directories is a strong rationale. It seems fairly "normal" for Ubuntu packages to have $PACKAGE_CONF.d directories to add additional configuration.
I think mkukri has the correct solution. we should add a comment to the top level file, and ensure all man pages correctly state how the grub handles the `.d` directory. And any official Ubuntu docs should be updated. we can't change the history of everyone that's posted online about every version of Ubuntu, but changing how we configure things because information online isn't strictly correct (because it predates grub.d, posters didn't know about grub.d, etc) doesn't seem like strong reason. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1812752 Title: UX: changing GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT in /etc/default/grub has no effect in cloud images To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/cloud-images/+bug/1812752/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
