Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.98+20100804-8
Hello,
grub-pc copies moreblue-orbit-grub.png to /boot/grub to increase the
chance for it to be accessible by grub.
This did well until desktop-base started shipping grub_background.sh
which now points grub's background image to the alternative symlink
/usr/share/images/desktop-base/desktop-grub.png
Thus, if /boot now resides on a separate filesystem, update-grub
does not configure a background image anymore.
Hence, grub-pc's postinst should probably copy desktop-grub.png instead
of or as well as moreblue-orbit-grub.png.
However, a more long-term solution able to deal with the dynamics of
this alternative symlink would probably move the copying away from
postinst to 05_debian_theme and would copy only the configured
background image and only if needed.
regards
Mario
