Package: grub
Version: 0.95+cvs20040624-7
Severity: normal
I just saw this happen, when upgrading a kernel-image package to a new
version:
Unpacking replacement kernel-image-2.6.7-1-386 ...
Searching for GRUB installation directory ... found: /boot/grub .
Testing for an existing GRUB menu.list file... found: /boot/grub/menu.lst .
Found kernel: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.7-1-386
Found kernel: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.7-1-386.dpkg-tmp
Updating /boot/grub/menu.lst ... done
The .dpkg-tmp file is a temporary dpkg file which existed only during the
upgrade. I suggest excluding .dpkg-* (at least) from the list.
