Bug#340891: Re: Bug#340891: More information

[Marc Haber]

severity #340891 important
retitle #340891 using update-grub as kernel-package hook is not supported any more
thanks

Update-grub writing to stdout breaks kernels built with recent
kernel-package versions if update-grub is used as a kernel-img hook.

This is now documented behavior of kernel-package, and is not going to
change. Thus,

 (a) the documentation in grub's README.Debian is now a sure recipe to
     break installation and removal of kernels and should be changed
     ASAP and
 (b) since being able to automatically have grub configuration adapted
     on installation or removal of kernels is a _really_ good thing, I'd
     love to see update-grub being adapted to work with kernel package again.

Please coordinate with Manoj.

Greetings
Marc
