Bug#495949: grub-common: grub-probe segfaults

[Jean-Luc Coulon (f5ibh)]

Hi,

I use now grub-pc 1.96+20090721-4 
I've no more *this* error.
Here is the log of an update-grub command:

[jean-luc at tangerine] % sudo update-grub
Generating grub.cfg ...
Found Debian background: moreblue-orbit-grub.png
Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-rc4-k8-1
Found initrd image: /boot/initrd.img-2.6.31-rc4-k8-1
Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.30-k8-3
Found initrd image: /boot/initrd.img-2.6.30-k8-3
Warning: update-grub_lib is deprecated, use grub-mkconfig_lib instead
Found memtest86+ image: /memtest86+.bin
done

But now, a simple grun-install command sergfaults:

[jean-luc at tangerine] % sudo grub-install /dev/md0                       
/usr/sbin/grub-install: line 323: 17949 Erreur de segmentation  
$grub_setup ${setup_verbose} ${setup_force} --directory=${grubdir} --
device-map=${device_map} ${install_device}


Regards

Jean-Luc
