Bug#557992: grub-pc: Booting is completely broken

Well, if upgrading to 25-1 does not by itself result in a working boot
configuration, it defintely shouldn't be the user who should be held
responsible to make sure that it works.  As an end user, i do expect
that the upgrade does work without any further intervention. If 25-1
does not work although you think it should, then it is simply broken.

For what it's worth, i didn't run any manual grub-install while before
upgrading to 25-1. In case it is required for grub2 to work after the
upgrade, it should be done automagically via the postinst without any
need for user intervention.

Thanks a lot for you work and effort!
