Version: 0.95+cvs20040624-15
Severity: normal


Function get_kernel_opt() in /sbin/update-grub handles some shell specials
incorrectly on line 535. This affects *at least* kernel images with a plus
in their names. This is allowed by Debian policies (as far as make-kpkg can
be trusted in this) and worked in earlier versions of grub.

Please fix, patch included.
