Bug#1043447: grub-efi-amd64: Should provide grub-efi

Package: grub-efi-amd64
Version: 2.06-13
Severity: wishlist
X-Debbugs-Cc: axst at users.sourceforge.net

Dear Maintainer,

I have created a small package for myself that changes the Grub boot menu to contain the
hostname (so that booting from removable media is made abundantly clear). So far I have
made this package dependent on grub-pc or grub-efi, so this would help avoid listing all
architectures in the dependencies.

In the configuration files below, ‘Gabriel’ is used as hostname.
